title: [Enhancing effect of sample additive on laser-induced plasma radiation].
abstract: In order to improve the radiation characteristic of laser-induced plasma, with the national standard soil taken as the target sample, a laser spectrum analytical system which composed of a high-energy neodymium glass laser, a multifunctional and compact integrated spectrometer, and a CCD detector was used to detect the influence of the NaCl sample additive on the laser plasma radiation intensity. The electron temperature and the electron density of the plasmas were also calculated from the lines intensity and stark broadening of emission spectral line respectively. The experimental results indicated that with the increase in the NaCl additive, the spectral intensity, signal-to-background ratio, the electron temperature, and the electron density all went up firstly and then down. When 15% NaCl was added, the radiation intensity of the plasma reached the maximum value, the spectral lines intensity of element Mn, K, Fe, and Ti increased by 39.2%, 42.5%, 53.9% and 33.8% compared to that without additive respectively, the spectral signal-to-background ratio increased by 64.4%, 84.39, 44.55% and 58.2% respectively, while the electron temperature and the electron density of the plasmas were heightened by 0.17 times and 0.36 times respectively.
