Original abstract

Following experimantal work was already presented during poster session at ESMLIBS conference in Turkey (11 – 15 September 2011). LIBS can be applied among others to study of aqueous solutions even with trace element content, e.g. for measurements of environmental water pollution. Here the measurements of trace amounts of heavy metals in liquid samples using LIBS are discussed. The newly constructed modular apparatus for liquid samples can be directly attached to the current experimental setup of single-pulse and double-pulse LIBS (SP and DP LIBS). The trace lead and copper detection in water is discussed. Various Pb and Cu concentrations in the liquid samples have been measured.

Následující experimentální práce byla odprezentována na poster session na konferenci EMSLIBS v Turecku (11. – 15. září 2011). Metoda LIBS může, mimo jiné, sloužit ke studují vodních roztoků obsahující stopové množství různých prvků, např pro měření přírodního znečištění. Diskutujeme především měření toxických těžkých kovů v roztocích pomocí metody LIBS. Nově zkonstruovaná aparatura pro měření tekutin může být snadno vložena do stávající sestavy pro SP a DP LIBS.
