Description

Method for improving laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy repeatability based on mixed gas environment
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for improving laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy repeatability based on a mixed gas environment, and belongs to the technical field of atomic emission spectroscopy measurement.
Background
The Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) technology is a new element analysis technology. The working principle of the technology is as follows: adopting pulse laser to ablate the sample to be measured to form laser induced plasma; the plasma radiates photons with specific frequency to generate a characteristic spectrum; and qualitatively and quantitatively analyzing the element composition of the sample to be detected by analyzing the characteristic spectrum. The LIBS technology has the advantages of no need of sample pretreatment, small damage to samples, high analysis speed, capability of realizing multi-element measurement and the like, and has great development potential.
However, the amount of ablated substances in the detection process of the LIBS technology is small, formed plasma is rapidly degraded, a series of fluctuations and interferences occur to experimental conditions, a series of fluctuations occur to parameters such as total ion number density, temperature, electron density and the like of the plasma, so that the repeatability of the spectrum is low, and the Relative Standard Deviation (RSD) value of the signal is high and usually exceeds 10%. This affects the detection accuracy of LIBS to some extent, making it inferior when competing with the similar techniques, limiting the further development of the techniques.
In the process from generation, expansion to attenuation and disappearance of the laser-induced plasma, a series of complex interactions can be generated with surrounding environment gas, so the environment gas can generate important influence on the signal of the plasma. Different gas environments have different properties such as molecular weight, thermal conductivity, ionization energy and the like, and the characteristics of interaction are changed accordingly. At present, an LIBS system usually detects a sample to be detected in an atmospheric environment or a pure inert gas environment (such as helium, neon and argon), and the obtained spectrum signal has high relative standard deviation and poor repeatability.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a method for improving the repeatability of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy based on a mixed gas environment, which is used for solving the problems of higher relative standard deviation and poorer repeatability of a spectral signal obtained in an atmospheric environment or a pure inert gas environment, so that the repeatability of the laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy is improved, and the measurement precision of an LIBS is improved.
The technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
1. a method for improving laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy repeatability based on a mixed gas environment is characterized by comprising the following steps:
1) placing a sample to be tested in a cavity, and sealing the cavity;
2) pumping the gas in the cavity by using a suction pump; when the pressure in the cavity reaches a vacuum state, stopping pumping;
3) introducing mixed gas into the vacuum cavity after gas extraction; the mixed gas is composed of at least two of inert gas, air, nitrogen and carbon dioxide; recording the composition ratio of the several gases; in the process of introducing the mixed gas, stopping introducing the gas when the pressure in the cavity reaches an atmospheric pressure, and enabling the sample to be detected to be in the mixed gas environment;
4) under the mixed gas environment, detecting a sample to be detected by using a laser-induced plasma spectroscopy system to obtain a laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy signal of the sample to be detected, and calculating the relative standard deviation RSD of the signal1As an index of reproducibility:
Figure BDA0002079855630000021
wherein, the sigma I represents the standard deviation of the spectrum signal under the mixed gas environment,
Figure BDA0002079855630000022
the average value of the spectrum signals under the mixed gas environment is represented;
5) continuously changing the composition proportion of several gases in the mixed gas, repeating the steps 2) -4), detecting the sample to be detected in a new mixed gas environment to obtain a corresponding spectrum signal, and calculating a corresponding Relative Standard Deviation (RSD)i
6) Comparing the relative standard deviation of the sample spectrum signals in various mixed gas environments to find out the minimum value; and taking the composition proportion corresponding to the minimum value as an optimal proportion, and detecting the sample by adopting the gas environment, thereby improving the repeatability of the laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy.
In the above technical scheme, the method for continuously changing the composition ratio of several gases in the mixed gas in the step 5)Comprises the following steps: changing according to gradient, i.e. selecting a positive integer n greater than or equal to 5, to obtain
Figure BDA0002079855630000023
In order to change the gradient, the composition ratio of the mixed gas is gradually changed.
The invention has the following advantages and prominent technical effects: in an atmospheric environment or a pure inert gas environment (such as helium, neon and argon), the repeatability of a laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy signal is poor, and the relative standard deviation value is usually over 10 percent; moreover, when the spectrum signal is weak and the experimental condition fluctuation is large, the relative standard deviation even exceeds 20%; under the optimal mixed gas environment of the method, the relative standard deviation of spectral line signals can be effectively reduced to be below 10 percent, and the repeatability of the spectrum is obviously improved; moreover, the improvement effect of the method is not only effective on one or more spectral lines in the spectrum, but also universally effective on most spectral lines, namely the method has universality; the process of determining the optimal proportion basically does not involve complicated experimental operation and mathematical operation, is simple and practical and is convenient to master; after the optimal proportion is determined, the method basically only needs to add an air blowing nozzle on the original LIBS system, the required instruments and devices are very simple, and the whole system is compact in structure and economical and practical.
