The Rolling Stones or The Beatles? Spiderman or Batman? iPhone or Android?

Is there a winner in each of these classic matchups? Maybe.

What we know for sure, though, is there are differences.

The same goes for the handheld Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectrometer (LIBS) and handheld X-ray Fluorescence (XRF). 

In this #MastersofPMI episode, Chris discusses:

• The histories and reputations of LIBS and XRF
• The precision, speed, and accuracy of LIBS versus XRF
• Reasons why LIBS is a viable alternative in many situations of PMI
• Why LIBS is a faster, safer, and more cost-efficient way to test metals
