Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a versatile technique that provides nearly instant elemental analysis of materials, both in the laboratory and in the field. This is done by focusing a short laser pulse on the surface of the sample, or object, studied and analysing the resulting spectrum from the laser-induced plasma. LIBS has been employed in the analysis of archaeological and historical objects, monuments and works of art for assessing the qualitative, semi-quantitative and quantitative elemental content of materials such as pigments, pottery, glass, stone, metals, minerals and fossils. It is also used in robotic planetary rovers. This Technical Brief describes the basic concepts of LIBS, presents relevant aspects of instrumentation and discusses how the technique is applied in the context of cultural heritage studies.
激光诱导击穿光谱技术（LIBS）是一种多功能技术，可在实验室和现场对材料进行几乎即时的元素分析。其原理是将短激光脉冲聚焦在所研究的样品或物体表面，然后分析激光诱导等离子体产生的光谱。LIBS已被用于分析考古和历史文物、古迹及艺术品，以评估颜料、陶器、玻璃、石材、金属、矿物和化石等材料的定性、半定量和定量元素含量。它也应用于机器人行星漫游车。本技术简报介绍了LIBS的基本概念，阐述了仪器的相关方面，并讨论了该技术在文化遗产研究中的应用方式。
