NanoLIBS-Q
The NanoLIBS-Q is a handheld LIBS analyzer which is customized to give quantitative measurements of elements for samples. Chemical composition based on elemental analysis is measured on material, without the need to take samples to a lab for preparation and analysis. The system delivers results with calibrations developed for your application.
