Abstract
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) has been shown to be a very useful tool for the characterization of materials in objects of cultural heritage. A simple fibre optic probe was designed and constructed consisting of a coupling unit and a focusing unit. Fibre optic LIBS probe was tested further on several objects including paintings and icons as well as archaeological glass and metal objects
