Abstract
A device for analyzing materials by plasma spectroscopy is of the portable and independent type, comprising a housing (10) containing a laser generator (18) that emits laser pulses that are focused on the surface of a material to be analyzed by means of a parabolic mirror (32) that is movable in translation inside the housing in order to perform a series of spot measurements along a scan line on the surface of the material to be analyzed and in order to take a measurement from a calibration sample (50) mounted in the measurement endpiece (22) of the housing (10).
