Laser-excited atomic fluorescence spectrophotometry : a feasibility study on constructing a spectrophotometer / by V. Cheam, I. Sekerka and R. Derosiers.: En13-5/90-128E-PDF

"This report describes a successful feasibility study on the development of a laser-excited atomic fluorescence spectrophotometer (LEAFS). A tuned pulsed laser light was used as the excitation source for the gas phase lead atoms generated in the graphite furnace. From the sensitivity observed in this preliminary study, it is very clear that low- or sub-ppt detection limit for lead can be easily achieved. To our knowledge, it is the first working LEAFS built in Canada"--Abstract.
