Abstract

Laser atomic fluorescence (LAF) is a powerful spectroscopic tool in analytical applications when it is necessary to measure extremely low concentrations of atoms. The main purpose of this method is to determine the presence and absolute concentrations of different elements in materials. In this paper we will describe the basic principles of the method and how advances in lasers, fiberoptics and detectors allow for significant improvement and simplification of the LAF spectrometer.
