• Description: This work is focused on a study of lateral and depth resolution of metallic materials which was exposed to molten fluoride salts treatment by means of laser ablation connected with mass spectrometry of inductively coupled plasma (LA-ICP-MS). Fluoride salts are at present examined as a coolant in the secondary circuit of a spent nuclear fuel transmutor.
