Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy are two versatile methods which can be employed to identify a wide variety of materials and for which stand-off operation has been demonstrated. Since both methods provide complementary spectroscopic information while using a similar instrumentation they can be combined to further increase the selectivity and sensitivity as necessary for security applications.en621conference paper
