using ArF excimer laser ablation-ICPMS
Using a laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (LA-ICPMS), U-Pb age and rare earth element (REE) abundances have been determined simultaneously from a single 20 µm ablation pit of zircon. The laser ablation system utilizing 193 nm wave-length ArF excimer laser produces stable an...
