The analytical figure of merit of a laser-induced breakdown (LIBS) system was evaluated for technetium measurements in liquid. LIBS data of elements that have similar properties to Tc such as Cr, Mn, and Re were studied. Various optical geometries which produce the laser spark in and at the liquid sample were tested. The calibration curve for Mn, Cr, and Re were obtained at the optimized experimental conditions with bulk liquid and liquid jet. We found that measurements using a liquid jet provide better detection limits than the bulk liquid measurements. The detection limits of Mg, Cr, Mn, and Re in a liquid jet measurement are found to be 0.1, 0.4, 0.7, and 10 ppm, respectively.
