A 193 nm excimer laser is used to ablate a Bi/sub 2/CaSr/sub 2/Cu/sub 2/O/sub 9/ superconductor and samples of Bi/sub 2/O/sub 3/, CaO, CuO, and Sr(OH)/sub 2/x8H/sub 2/O. Emission spectra generated during ablation are presented. These emissions are from simple atomic and diatomic species. Our observations show that the emission can be used to characterize the bulk material.
