Which outcome occurs when a high-powered laser is utilized in laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) at atmospheric conditions?

💡 Explanation

Plasma formation occurs because the laser's high energy density causes rapid heating and ionization via avalanche ionization; therefore, atomic emissions are generated from the plasma, rather than photoacoustic or Raman effects that need other mechanisms or SHG that depends highly on crystal.
