Over the past decade, significant advances in the study of double layers have been achieved through spatial and time resolved, laser induced fluorescence (LIF) measurements of ion velocity distribution functions.  I will review some highlights of our LIF measurements of ions in double layers and describe new techniques being developed for LIF measurements of neutrals in low temperature plasmas. Conventional LIF  and two-photon LIF (TALIF) measurements of ion and neutral velocity distribution measurements in argon, krypton, and hydrogen plasmas will be described and compared to electrostatic probe measurements and theoretical predictions.
