Selective Surface Sintering Using a Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy System

Figure 1

Triangulation method using a 635 nm CW laser (beam entering from the left). The vertical beam converging on the sample represents the LIBS beam. (a), (c), and (e) show where the autofocus laser strikes the sample surface. (b), (d), and (f) show the camera images of the filtered autofocus laser spots.
