This study demonstrates a new approach for suppressing the self-absorption effect in single-pulse laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) using unusual parallel laser irradiation. A nanosecond Nd:YAG laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm was fired parallel to and focused at a very close distance of 1 mm to the sample surface. The experiment was carried out in air at atmospheric pressure. In this configuration, the sample was ablated by a shockwave generated from the air breakdown plasma formed near the sample surface. Under this condition, we successfully obtained spectra of the resonance emission line for high concentration K (K I 766.4 nm and K I 769.9 nm) that are free from self-reversal and weakly affected by the self-absorption. Furthermore, the quantitative analysis results for the element K showed that a linear calibration curve over a wide concentration range could be achieved, which indicates the effectiveness of this technique in reducing the self-absorption effect and improving the analytical performance of ordinary single-pulse LIBS. © 2021 Optical Society of America under the terms of the OSA Open Access Publishing Agreement
