چکیده

We have developed a class of aperture coding schemes for Remote Raman Spectrometers (RRS) that remove the traditional trade-off between throughput and spectral resolution. As a result, the size of the remote interrogation region can be driven by operational, rather than optical considerations. In this paper we present the design of our coded-aperture standoff spectroscopy system as well as experimental data collected while making remote measurements.

UV gated Raman spectroscopy for standoff detection of explosives

Real-time detection and identification of explosives at a standoff distance is a major issue in efforts to develop defense against so-called improvised explosive devices (IED). It is recognized that the only method, which is potentially capable to standoff detection of minimal amounts of explosives is laser-based spectroscopy. LDS technique belongs to trace detection, namely to its micro-partic...

Remote Raman detection of Feldspars under daylight condition using a compact remote Raman+LIBS+Fluorescence system

Introduction: The detection of minerals using remote analytical techniques has the advantage of performing rapid chemical analysis of a variety of targets without sample collection. This saves significant time in planetary explorations using rovers and provides a large number of targets accessible to a lander near its landing site. The University of Hawaii (UH), in collaboration with Los Alamos...

Highly Selective Standoff Detection and Imaging of Trace Chemicals in a Complex Background using Single-Beam Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Spectroscopy

A sensitive, non-destructive and highly selective method of standoff detection using coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS) is presented. The approach uses a single amplified femtosecond laser to generate high resolution (<10cm) multiplex CARS spectra encompassing the fingerprint region (400cm – 2500cm) at standoff distance. Quantitative studies of this method result in detection of 2μg...

STANDOFF RAMAN SPECTROSCOPY SYSTEM FOR DETECTION OF EXPLOSIVES, CHEMICAL WARFARE AGENTS SIMULANTS AND TOXIC INDUSTRIAL COMPOUNDS By

In this work a remote Raman system has been designed, assembled and tested for detecting explosives, Toxic Industrial Compounds (TIC) and Chemical Warfare Agents Simulants (CWAS) at laboratory scale up to 7 m target-telescope distance. The prototype system consists of a Renishaw Raman Microspectrometer, model RM2000, equipped with a charge-coupled device (CCD) detector, a telescope, a fiber opt...

Standoff detection of high explosive materials at 50 meters in ambient light conditions using a small Raman instrument.

We have designed and demonstrated a standoff Raman system for detecting high explosive materials at distances up to 50 meters in ambient light conditions. In the system, light is collected using an 8-in. Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope fiber-coupled to an f/1.8 spectrograph with a gated intensified charge-coupled device (ICCD) detector. A frequency-doubled Nd : YAG (532 nm) pulsed (10 Hz) laser is...
