A system that combines the capabilities and analytical benefits of LIBS and LA-ICP-MS was evaluated for elemental analysis of a wide range of solid samples. The ablation system consisted of a Nd: YAG laser operated 266nm. A Czerny-turner spectrograph with ICCD detector and Time-of-Flight or a Quadrupole based mass spectrometers were selected for LIBS and ICP-MS detection, respectively. This tandem system allows simultaneous determination of major and minor elements, and trace elements from these samples.
