LIBS imaging research groups (DRAFT)

Some LIBS imaging research groups are mentioned here. This is not all, these are the people whose work I'm familiar enough with to talk about it. See also list of LIBS commercial providers page, as they are in large part the same people.

CEITEC (Central European Institute of Technology)

Ceitec Laboratory of Laser Spectroscopy In Brno, Czech republic.

Commercial providers Lightigo and AtomTrace are affiliated.

Highlights: Ceitec LIBS education material explains multiple LIBS spectra classification algorithms with python scripts. They have organized a LIBS contest Vrábel, J. et al. (2020) ‘Classification of challenging Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy soil sample data - EMSLIBS contest’, Spectrochimica Acta Part B: Atomic Spectroscopy, 169, p. 105872. DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.sab.2020.105872 for different teams to compete on LIBS spectral processing methodologies. I tested some of my methods with the contest data on EMBLIBS page.

ILM (Institut Lumiére Matiére) of CNRS-Université Lyon 1

In Lyon, France, ILM makes some of the most impressive LIBS imaging work. One of their specialty is the microLIBS(µLIBS) meaning equipment that allows higher resolution than most LIBS scanners.

Commercial provider Ablatom is affiliated.
