ժҪ An innovative application of laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) technique in illustrating elemental distributions on stainless steel sheets was presented. The technique proved to be a systematic and accurate ap-proach in producing visual images or maps of elemental distributions at cross-sectional surface of a stainless steel sheet. Two stain-less steel sheets served as research objects: 3 mm��1 300 mm stainless steel hot-rolled plate and 1 mm��1 260 mm cold-rolled plate. The cross-sectional surfaces of the two samples at 1/4 position along the width direction were scanned (raster area -44 mm2 and 11 mm2) with a focused laser beam (wavelength 213 nm,diameter of laser crater 100 ��,and laser power 1.6 mJ) in a laser abla-tion chamber. The laser ablation system was coupled to a quadrupole ICP-MS,which made the detection of ion intensities of 27Al+,44Ca+,47Ti+,55Mn+ and 56Fe+ within an area of interest possible. One-dimensional (1D) content line distribution maps and two-dimensional (2D) contour maps for specific positions or areas were plotted to indicate the element distribution of a target area with high accuracy. Statistic method was used to analyze the acquired data by calculating median contents,maximum segregation,sta-tistic segregation and content-frequency distribution.
