Laser spark spectroscopy imaging research website
This is my research website presenting my work on laser spark spectroscopy imaging technology. The currently published site is a draft and lacking in many aspects but I am actively transferring my work to website form to be available here.
I follow the principles of open science and free software to make my work transparent and reusable and publish all my work under free licenses.
For Nordic LIBS 2024 material see Nordic LIBS 2024.
Research Breakfast 2024 slides.
For my other projects and personal information see Personal.
In Finnish, suomeksi laserkipinäspektroskopiakuvantaminen.
