Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of laser spectral analysis technology, and more specifically, relates to a method for detecting elemental concentration based on laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy. Background Technology

[0002] Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a technique for analyzing the elemental composition of materials based on atomic and ion emission spectra. It utilizes a high-energy laser to vaporize the surface of a material, generating plasma, and then analyzes the emitted spectrum. The elemental composition of the sample is determined based on the acquired spectral wavelengths, and the elemental content is determined based on the acquired spectral intensities. LIBS has been widely applied in industries such as industrial processing, food analysis, tumor detection, and geology due to its advantages of real-time, rapid, in-situ, and non-destructive analysis.

[0003] However, different types of samples contain different major elements, resulting in significant differences in the spectral intensities of the analyte even under identical experimental conditions and with the same analyte content. This highlights the challenge of matrix effects in LIBS quantification. Researchers have conducted extensive studies and proposed a series of methods to mitigate matrix effect interference, which can be broadly categorized into experimental improvement methods, single-standard calibration methods, algorithm correction methods, and external normalization methods. Experimental improvement methods mainly include laser wavelength optimization and sample pretreatment optimization. While these techniques have some effectiveness, their calibration models are simple and their application is limited. Single-standard calibration methods are suitable for real-time detection applications, but they only utilize the spectral data itself, resulting in limited correction effects. Algorithm correction also has some effect, but it lacks physical meaning and requires substantial data support. Plasma image correction has significant physical meaning and some effectiveness, but the high cost and complex operation of enhanced charge-coupled devices (ICCDs) for capturing plasma images hinder large-scale industrial application.

[0004] In summary, current methods for elemental concentration detection have not yet yielded a solution for the LIBS matrix effect that is effective, cost-effective, and has clear physical meaning. Summary of the Invention

[0065] Step A1: Obtain the second LIBS full-band spectrum and the second plasma acoustic signal for at least two matrices (at least 3 standard samples for each matrix).

[0066] Specifically, such as Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, five standard samples of known element types and concentrations from each of the three matrices—aluminium alloy, iron (microalloy steel), and titanium (TC4)—were placed on a 3D displacement platform 6. With a defocusing depth of -3 mm, an Nd:YAG nanosecond pulsed laser 10 with a wavelength of 532 nm was used. A six-channel fiber optic spectrometer 8 was used with a gate width of 9 μs and a delay of 2 μs. The sampling rate of the acquisition card 2 was 400 kHz. Each sample was excited 400 times with an energy of 80 mJ, and 400 pairs of second LIBS full-band spectra 15 and second laser-induced plasma acoustic signals 5 were acquired.

[0067] Step A2: Determine the spectral lines of the element to be corrected based on the elemental spectral line database, and calculate the ideal plasma state spectrum I of the standard samples of all matrices under the second LIBS full-band spectroscopy. ideal To demonstrate that a calibration model can be established using any two matrices, two sets of calibration matrices were selected, and calibration models were established for each to prove the broad applicability of this method. Specifically, Mn was selected between aluminum-based and iron-based matrices, and Fe was selected between aluminum-based and titanium-based matrices for calibration demonstration. The contents of Mn and Fe in the selected aluminum-based, iron-based, and titanium-based samples are shown in Table 1, where the serial number represents the standard sample number in each matrix.

[0068] Table 1. Mn and Fe elemental contents (wt.%) in aluminum-based, iron-based, and titanium-based alloys.

[0069]

[0070] In this embodiment, the Mn II 344.20 nm spectral line corresponding to Mn and the Fe II 239.56 nm spectral line corresponding to Fe are selected for demonstration of calibration model establishment. When establishing calibration models using both aluminum-based and iron-based matrices, samples 1 from the aluminum-based matrix and samples 2 and 5 from the iron-based matrix are selected as test samples to evaluate the calibration effect of the calibration model on unknown samples, with the remaining 7 serving as training samples. When establishing calibration models using both aluminum-based and titanium-based matrices, samples 1 from the aluminum-based matrix and samples 2 and 5 from the iron-based matrix are selected as test samples to evaluate the calibration effect of the calibration model on unknown samples, with the remaining 7 serving as training samples. Based on the second LIBS full-band spectrum, according to the LIBS spectral line integral intensity expression formula, the standard spectral intensity I of the Mn II 344.20 nm spectral line of the aluminum-based and iron-based matrix training samples and the Fe II 239.56 nm spectral line of the aluminum-based and titanium-based matrix training samples under ideal plasma conditions are calculated respectively. ideal Its formula is as follows:

[0071]

[0072] F0, C0, l0, T0, U(T0) and n e0 These are the instrument and environmental factors, the content of the analyte, the radiation path length, the plasma temperature, the partition function, and the electron number density under ideal plasma conditions, respectively. i A ij and E i These represent degeneracy, transition probability, and upper level energy, respectively, where k is the Boltzmann constant, and m... e where E is the electron mass, h is Planck's constant, and E is the electron mass. ion Let ΔE be the ionization energy of the neutral atom of the element to be analyzed. ion It is the ionization potential reduction factor.

[0073] Next, we establish the spectrum I under ideal plasma conditions. ideal With element content C s The calibration curves between them; specifically, based on the calculated Mn II 344.20 nm spectral line of the aluminum-based and iron-based training samples under ideal plasma conditions and the standard spectral intensity I of the aluminum-based and titanium-based training samples at 239.56 nm. ideal Then, the corresponding element concentrations C in Table 1 are... s Substitute into the calibration curve equation: C s =kI ideal +b. The obtained calibration curve is as follows: Figure 7 (a) and Figure 7 The black solid line in (c) shows the calibration curve obtained using actual spectral intensities and the curve obtained by calculating the standard spectral intensities I. ideal The significant deviation stems from matrix effects. However, the standard spectral intensity I... ideal The calculation requires prior knowledge of the content C0 of the element to be analyzed. When the calibration line is used for an unknown sample, the element content is unknown, so the standard spectral intensity I cannot be calculated. ideal Other parameters are needed to indirectly characterize the standard spectral intensity I. ideal The calculation factor is used to achieve spectral correction for unknown samples, and the corrected calibration curve is shown below. Figure 7 (b) and Figure 7 The black solid line in (d) is shown.

[0074] Step A3: Obtain the actual spectral intensity I of the spectral line to be corrected in the second LIBS full-band spectrum. real And calculate the standard spectral deviation e = I real -I ideal .

[0075] Specifically, the actual intensity I of the spectral line Mn II at 344.20 nm for aluminum-based and iron-based training samples, and the spectral line Fe II at 239.56 nm for aluminum-based and titanium-based training samples were extracted from the second LIBS full-band spectrum collected in the experiment. real (C,n e ,T,l), and based on the standard spectral intensity I under the ideal plasma state. ideal (C0,n e0 Calculate the deviation e of the spectral lines at 344.20 nm for MnII and 239.56 nm for FeII, and the actual spectral intensity I. real Compared with standard spectral intensity I ideal The deviation e between them is:

[0076] e = I real (C,n e ,T,l)-I ideal (C0,n e0 ,T0,l0).

[0077] Next, the plasma electron temperature T and electron number density n were extracted from the second LIBS full-band spectrum. e Interference with elements SI; extract the plasma acoustic spectrum image energy E and area S corresponding to the second plasma acoustic signal; specifically, the collected... Figure 3 The plasma acoustic signal shown in (a) is transformed by wavelet time-frequency transformation to obtain a plasma acoustic spectrum image, from which the audible frequency bands are extracted as follows: Figure 3 As shown in (b), the second relationship between the plasma acoustic spectrum image area S and the matrix is ​​extracted through image features, as follows: Figure 6 As shown, the area S of the plasma acoustic spectrum image exhibits a significant matrix effect.

[0078] Figure 4 Image (a) in the image is a photograph taken by laser confocal microscopy of Micro Alloysteel Sample 1 under different laser energies. Figure 4 (b) in the figure represents the LIBS spectra acquired under different laser energies. Figure 4 (c) in the image shows plasma acoustic spectrum images acquired under different laser energies. Figure 4 As shown in (a), based on the ablation mass M of the sample at different energies obtained from laser confocal microscopy, the energy feature E in the plasma acoustic spectrum image is extracted, and the first relationship between the plasma acoustic spectrum image energy E and the sample ablation mass M is established as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the plasma acoustic spectrum image energy E and the sample ablation mass M are linearly related.

[0079] Based on the above relationship, the features corresponding to the influencing factors of spectral deviation extracted from the plasma acoustic spectrum image of the sample include: plasma acoustic spectrum image energy E and plasma acoustic spectrum image area S; the features corresponding to the influencing factors of spectral deviation extracted from the full-band LIBS spectrum of the sample include: full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the HI 656.28nm elemental spectral line, plasma electron temperature T, and spectral intensity SI of interfering elements.

[0080] Among them, the plasma acoustic spectrum image energy E represents the total particle number density N. s The area S of the plasma acoustic spectrum image represents the plasma radiation path length l. The plasma electron temperature T of the LIBS full-band spectrum is calculated using the Saha Boltzmann oblique line method. The full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the 656.28 nm elemental spectral line represents the electron number density n. e The spectral intensity (SI) of interfering elements characterizes the elemental interference (EI).

[0082] l = g2(S);

[0083] T = g3(Saha);

[0084] n e =g4(FWHM);

[0085] EI = g5(SI).

[0086] Finally, the plasma electron temperature T and electron number density n were established. e The mapping relationship between five features, including elemental interference (SI), image energy (E), and area (S), and the standard spectral deviation (e), was established. Specifically, based on five spectral deviation-related features extracted from LIBS full-band spectra and plasma acoustic spectra, the mapping relationships for the estimated standard spectral deviation (e) of the spectral line MnII (344.20 nm) for aluminum-based and iron-based materials, and the spectral line FeII (239.56 nm) for aluminum-based and titanium-based materials were obtained.

[0087] e=f(g1(E),g2(S),g3(Saha),g4(FWHM),g5(SI));

[0088] After obtaining this model, for the test set samples that were not involved in the modeling, the plasma electron temperature T and electron number density n were extracted from the LIBS full-band spectrum. e By removing the elemental interference SI, the plasma acoustic signal energy E and area S corresponding to the plasma acoustic spectrum image are extracted; by substituting them into the above mapping relationship, the standard spectral deviation e can be obtained.

[0089] S1-S3: Acquire the first LIBS full-band spectrum and the first plasma acoustic signal of the unknown sample; extract the plasma electron temperature T and electron number density n from the first LIBS full-band spectrum. e Interference with elements SI; extract the plasma acoustic spectrum image energy E and area S corresponding to the first plasma acoustic signal.

[0090] Specifically, unknown samples are test samples that did not participate in the establishment of the mapping relationship. The second LIBS full-band spectrum and the second plasma acoustic signal of the test sample selected in step A1 are combined to form the first LIBS full-band spectrum and the first plasma acoustic signal; the plasma electron temperature T and electron number density n of the first LIBS full-band spectrum are extracted. e Interference with elements SI; extract the plasma acoustic spectrum image energy E and area S corresponding to the first plasma acoustic signal.

[0091] S4: Substitute the five features into the mapping relationship of the spectral line to be corrected to obtain the standard spectral deviation of the spectral line to be corrected.

[0092]
