Deep ultraviolet resonance Raman excitation enables explosives detection.

چکیده
We measured the 229 nm absolute ultraviolet (UV) Raman cross-sections of the explosives trinitrotoluene (TNT), pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN), cyclotrimethylene-trinitramine (RDX), the chemically related nitroamine explosive HMX, and ammonium nitrate in solution. The 229 nm Raman cross-sections are 1000-fold greater than those excited in the near-infrared and visible spectral regions. Deep UV resonance Raman spectroscopy enables detection of explosives at parts-per-billion (ppb) concentrations and may prove useful for stand-off spectroscopic detection of explosives.

Towards deep-UV surface-enhanced resonance Raman spectroscopy of explosives: ultrasensitive, real-time and reproducible detection of TNT.
We report ultrasensitive and label-free detection of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) deposited by drop coating using deep-ultraviolet surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (DUV-SERRS). Well-defined aluminum nanoparticle arrays as the SERRS substrate at 257 nm excitation wavelength enabled highly reproducible and real-time detection of TNT down to the detection limit of the attogram level in q...

Simultaneous analysis of explosives to identify, determine the purity and eliminate environmental pollution requires rapid, simple and cheap methods. Spectrophotometries method (UV-Vis), high-field proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR), Raman spectroscopy and near infrared (NIR) are common methods that are applicable in two ways of direct and indirect in simultaneous analysis. In this poin...

Fiber-optic probes with improved excitation and collection efficiency for deep-UV Raman and resonance Raman spectroscopy.
The ability of ultraviolet resonance Raman spectroscopy (UVRRS) to determine structural, environmental, and analytical information concerning low-concentration aqueous biomolecules makes it a powerful bioanalytical and biophysical technique. Unfortunately, its utility has been limited by experimental requirements that preclude in situ or in vivo studies in most cases. We have developed the firs...

Dielectric stack interference ® lters can be used in conjunction with a high-throughput single-stage spectrograph to facilitate the measurement of high signal-to-noise (S/N) ultraviolet (UV) Raman spectra with 228.9-nm and 244-nm excitation wavelengths. Placed between the sample and the spectrograph, these ® lters re ̄ ect Rayleigh scattering while transmitting Stokes-shifted Raman scattering. W...
