Description

The use of Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) method for real-time analsysis of Nitrogen particles in soil is proposed. This study aims to find the optimal LIBS formulations and configurations for analyzing soil particles, mainly Nitrogen particels. The LIBS hardware used in this reearch Nd-YAG Laser model Q-Smart 850. The optimization was done through laser pulse shooting to a pellet-shaped soil sample within a 5.75 torr pressurized vacuum chamber with 532 nm wavelength, 5.5 ns pulse duration 5.5 ns, 10 Hz repitition rate, Q-switch delay 150 µs and energy of 15 mJ/pulse.
