Abstract
Novel implementations of single-fiber laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy and laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy systems that gated light switches based on frustrated total internal reflection are described. The switching devices are largely wavelength independent, with full temporal and spatial separation of laser and fluorescence light. Wavelength-independent beam separation or beam combination schemes can be implemented for coaxial optical setups, e.g., in single-fiber or telescopic experimental arrangements. Selected practical examples of schemes for qualitative and quantitative analytical spectroscopy are discussed.
