Laser-Based Analysis of Solids with Environmental Impact

  • Chapter
Laser in Environmental and Life Sciences

  • 293 Accesses

Abstract

Within the last years, the laser-based analysis of solids has developed so far that it can be applied generally and not only in the laboratory. The increasing number of applications prove this. In the following, projects shall be presented which make use of lasers concerning the analysis of solids as well as pollutants on solid surfaces in the field of basic and mainly applied research. Of course, this can only be a specific selection of the actual applications and research programmes due to the various utilized techniques and the numerous investigated substances.
