The study of thick corrosion layers on archaeological metals using controlled laser ablation in conjuction with an external beam microprobe
The variation with depth of the composition of corrosion layers on buried metal objects can provide the archaeologist with valuable information relating to the burial conditions of the object. In some cases these layers can be varied in thickness (up to 1 mm) and so normally destructive methods such...
