Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a rapidly developing technique for
chemical materials analysis. LIBS is applied for fundamental investigations, eg, the laser …

In recent years, rapid urbanization and industrialization have caused severe damage to the
agro-ecological environment, such as heavy metal pollution of soil, eutrophication, and …

A review is provided on the last decade (2010–2019) applications of Laser-Induced
Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) technique to agricultural materials, including soils and …

Compound fertilizer occupies a dominant position in the structure of fertilizer products in
China. The contents of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are the key indicators affecting …

This review attempts to present a broad view of the technique laser-induced breakdown
spectroscopy (LIBS), since its origin, fundamentals, sample preparation strategies, use of …

A novel approach to distinguish soybean seed vigor based on Fourier transform infrared
spectroscopy (FTIR) associated with chemometric methods is presented. Batches with high …

The tests commonly used to determine seed vigor are often laborious and time-consuming;
thus, rapid methods are highly required for identifying high-vigor seeds among different …

A spark discharge system was coupled to laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (SD-LIBS)
to improve sensitivity in the determination of P in fertilizers. A LIBS system consisting of a Q …

In this paper, a streak camera system is used for obtaining the spectral images in laser-
induced breakdown spectroscopy. Streak images are time-resolved, thus enabling tracking …
