A portable, optical spectrometer provides an extended ignition arc allowing high-voltage components to be contained within a protective housing. Automatic plasma initiation is managed through an optical plasma detector distinguishing plasma contained in the plasma region from breakout plasma. A negative pressure vent receives gases received from the plasma and cools these gases prior to receipt by a remote vent fan through a conduit having sheathing air bleed openings around the vent mixing with other cooling air streams for the electronics. A spring-biased sample jet tube holder allows ready removal and replacement of the sample jet tube while preserving proper alignment with the plasma region.

The disclosure provides a plasma source and an excitation system for excitation of a plasma, and an optical monitoring system. In one embodiment the plasma source includes: (1) a coaxial resonant cavity body having an inner length, and including a first end, a second end, an inner electrode and an outer electrode, (2) a radio frequency signal interface electrically coupled to the inner and outer electrodes at a fixed position along the inner length and configured to provide a radio frequency signal to the coaxial resonant cavity body, (3) a window positioned at the first end of the coaxial resonant cavity body, and (4) a mounting flange positioned proximate the window at the first end of the coaxial resonant cavity body and defining a plasma cavity, wherein the window forms one side of the plasma cavity and isolates the coaxial resonant cavity body from plasma in the plasma cavity.

The tube body is further provided with a microwave input port, and the microwave input port is connected to the metal tube.

Inventive techniques for forming unique compositions of matter are disclosed, as well as various advantageous physical characteristics, and associated properties of the resultant materials. In particular, particles comprising polymer matrices are characterized by having carbon disposed within the polymer matrix structure thereof. The carbon is primarily, or entirely, present at interstitial sites of the polymer matrix, and may be present in amounts ranging from about 15 wt % to about 90 wt %. The carbon, moreover, forms covalent bonds with both atoms of the polymer matrix and other carbon atoms present in, but not part of, the matrix. This facilitates substantially homogeneous dispersal of the carbon throughout the resultant material, conveying unique and advantageous properties such as strength-to-weight ratio, density, mechanical toughness, sheer strength, flex strength, hardness, anti-corrosiveness, electrical and/or thermal conductivity, etc. as described herein. In some approaches, the resultant materials may be powderized or pelletized.
