LIBS is on the step from a laboratory application to on-site analysis. A validated mobile LIBS-system for on-site application on building materials is under development at BAM in cooperation with industrial partners (system developers and companies), who will use this technique for investigation on building structures like bridges and parking decks. The system is designed to measure the content of harmful species like chlorine, sulfur or alkalis, to give the engineer a tool for the estimation of the condition of concrete structures and for quality assurance during concrete repair work on-site. In these work results of on-site measurements on a chloride contaminated bridge are shown. Further work will focus on providing guidelines to establish LIBS as a standard procedure for chemical investigations of building materials.
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a combination of plasma generation on the sample surface by a high power laser pulse and optical emission spectroscopy (OES). It is a direct measurement method without an extensive sample preparation. Concrete is a multi phase system. With LIBS it is possible to distinguish the different phases and based on that to correlate the chloride content to the cement mass. This is done by scanning the surface with a resolution of up to 0.1 mm. The high measurement frequency of 100 Hz or even higher allows the in-situ visualization of the chloride content over the measured area. With a calibration a quantification of chloride concentration is possible. As an example the LIBS measurement on a 50 mm by 70 mm area with a resolution of 0.5 mm and the visualization of the chloride distribution takes only 10 minutes. Additionally it is possible to evaluate the carbonation depth from the same measurement. Examples of practical application to determine the chloride-to-cement-content on concrete samples are presented. The possibilities and the limitations of LIBS are discussed.
Aufgrund der natürlichen und vom Menschen verursachten Heterogenität von Böden erfordert der Erhalt und die Verbesserung ihrer Fruchtbarkeit durch landwirtschaftliche Bewirtschaftungsmaßnahmen sorgfältig geplante Ent-scheidungen, die auf einer detaillierten Erfassung der Bodeneigenschaften und einem vertieften Verständnis der Bodenprozesse beruhen. Es ist bekannt, dass die konventionelle, flächen-einheitliche Bewirtschaftung Ertragsver-luste durch zu geringe Bewirtschaftungsintensität (z. B. Düngung) auf einen Teil der Fläche verursacht, während andere Teile des Feldes zu hohe Dosen erhalten und es dadurch zu Verschwendung von Ressourcen und zu Um-weltbelastungen kommt. Trotz der Verfügbarkeit von Technologien für ortsspezifische Düngung ist die Akzeptanz ortsspezifischer Bewirtschaftung (Precision Agriculture) in der Praxis noch gering. Ein wesentlicher Grund dafür ist das Fehlen von kostengünstigen Methoden zur Erfassung der bewirtschaftungsrelevanten Bodenmerkmale. So-wohl für die elementanalytische Untersuchung von Böden als auch für die Untersuchung von Ausgangsmaterialien (z.B. Klärschlammaschen) für ihre Verwendung als Dünger ist eine zuverlässige Analytik und Prozessüberwachung erforderlich.
The laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a fast method to provide multi-elemental analysis of any sample. At the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM) the LIBS technique is applied on building materials to measure ingress profiles of harmful species like chloride and alkalis. The ingress depth and the quantitative amount is important for the evaluation of the potential for damage processes like the alkali-silica reaction or chloride-induced corrosion. Concrete as an example is a highly heterogeneous material with 1/7 cement (major component CaO) and 6/7 aggregates (SiO2) with different grain sizes. Due to a scanning procedure a two dimensional element distribution of a concrete surface can be measured. In order to have an automated Separation method to evaluate heterogeneous materials, different cluster algorithm have been tested. Best results have been achieved with the Expectation-Maximization-Algorithm (EM-Algorithm).
LIBS matures to a quantitative method for elemental analysis rather than a qualitative diagnostic tool. Numerous real world applications for bulk and microanalysis profit from instrumental and methodical advances in the last decade. Today, recording of numerous spectra from samples can be done with low experimental efforts and low cost per spectrum. Not surprisingly, LIBS data, with a high spectral resolution and a broad spectral range, become “big data” and can be utilized in different ways beyond elemental analysis. But, what is the generic or best approach for quantitative LIBS analysis? What techniques can be employed to gain new insights into data? Emergent information can arise through data fusion of LIBS data with other data, i.e. orthogonal spectroscopic or other information related to the sample. But are fused data better than data from a single method?
This talk will provide an in-depth overview what chemometric tools can do for LIBS. For quantitative analysis, pre-processing tools are essential to improve precision, accuracy, and reproducibility but at the same time their application to data is still based on phenomenological criteria. Multivariate analysis seems to dominate LIBS, but are there drawbacks on using all information from spectra. For different data sets from real applications, the use of multivariate calibration and (un)supervised pattern recognition will be discussed in comparison with reference analytical methods and possible improvements through plasma diagnostics and modelling.
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a combination of laser ablation and optical emission spectroscopy. Due to the possibility of direct measurements on the sample surface with a minimum of sample preparation investigations of building materials can be conducted quite fast. In combination with a scanning technique (translation stage or scanning mirrors head) 2D element distributions of harmful species like chlorides and alkalis are evaluated with a sub-mm resolution. By scanning a surface of typically 100 mm x 100 mm the heterogeneity of the material may be considered. LIBS is capable to identify hot spots in element concentration with a resolution of 0.1 mm or even smaller. A LIBS-system for the on-site application on building materials is, in cooperation with system developers and companies which will use this technique for investigation on real structures, under test at BAM. We present an example. Further work will focus on providing guidelines to establish LIBS as a standard procedure for chemical investigations of building materials.
The main task of BAM in the I4S project is the development of online analytics for reliable monitoring of major and minor nutrients like K, P, Ca in soil using mobile-XRF (X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy) and mobile-LIBS (laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy). Each method provides fast and simultaneous multi-element analyses which are neccessary for mapping agricultural cropland. The first objective was to design a combined measurement setup for XRF and LIBS. The centerpiece is the rotatable sample plate which enables the measurement of moving samples. Current steps are the optimisation of the parameters for the analysis of soils.
Production of soil reference materials (for project partners) is integrated into the project „X-ray fluorescence, laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (and Raman spectroscopy) as tools for a site-specific management of soil fertility“. BAM provides good analytics which is necessary for measuring the right values. Why is it important to have reference values? They enable the connection of own measuring results to the SI (international system of units) and the comparison with results from other laboratories. The soil reference materials are also needed for the calibration of the matrix dependent methods laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and X-ray fluorescence analysis (XRF). For the production of soil reference materials different steps are required, for example drying, sieving and homogenisation.

The equation of state for plasmas containing negative atomic and molecular ions (anions) is modeled. The model is based on the assumption that all ionization processes and chemical reactions are at local thermal equilibrium and the Coulomb interaction in the plasma is described by the Debye–Hu¨ckel theory. In particular, the equation of state is obtained for plasmas containing the elements Ca, Cl, C, Si, N, and Ar. The equilibrium reaction constants are calculated using the latest experimental and ab initio data of spectroscopic constants for the molecules CaCl2, CaCl, Cl2, N2, C2, Si2 , CN, SiN, SiC, and their positive and negative ions. The model is applied to laserinduced plasmas (LIPs) by including the equation of state into a fluid dynamic numerical model based on the Navier–Stokes equations describing an expansion of LIP plumes into an ambient gas as a reactive viscous flow with radiative losses. In particular, the formation of anions Cl-, C-, Si-, Cl2, Si2, C2 , CN-, SiC-, and SiN- in LIPs is investigated in detail.
