Abstract

The features of the application of an axicon optical system for the LIBS sampling are described. For the axicon sampling, the crater depth is less than that for a conventional spherical lens. The zone of thermal effect around a sampling point is also reduced. The results obtained indicate that the axicon optical system is promising for the thin-film study.
