Physics

Scientific paper

The capability of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) to detect and identify salts of different kind in frozen salt solutions was investigated under Martian conditions. The plasma characteristics and thus the resulting spectra and line intensities strongly depend on the laser power density on the sample's surface and on properties of the ice i.e. the opacity and consistency. In this study the focus was on discriminating sulfates from chlorides in ice. Moreover, the capabilities of LIBS for depth profiling of the frozen salt solutions were investigated.
