| Title | THz for CBRN and Explosives Detection and Diagnosis |
| Author(s) | Pereira, Mauro F;Shulika, Oleksiy |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2017. |
| Description | XIII, 194 p. 111 illus., 73 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This work is intended to jointly address the development, realization and applications of emitters and detectors of terahertz (THz-0.3 THz up to 10 THz) and their application to diagnostics of CBRN effects and detection of explosives and CBRN. Hazardous substances typically exhibit rotational and vibrational transitions in this region, hence giving access to spectroscopic analysis of a large variety of molecules which play a key role in security as well as various other areas, e.g. air pollution, climate research, industrial process control, agriculture, food industry, workplace safety and medical diagnostics can be monitored by sensing and identifying them via THz (0.3 to 10 THz) and mid infrared (MIR-10 THz to 100 THz) absorption ???finger prints???. Most plastics, textiles and paper are nearly transparent for THz radiation |

| Title | Terahertz and Mid Infrared Radiation: Detection of Explosives and CBRN (Using Terahertz) |
| Author(s) | Pereira, Mauro F;Shulika, Oleksiy |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2014. |
| Description | XIII, 196 p. 103 illus., 70 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The reader will find here a timely update on new THz sources and detection schemes as well as concrete applications to the detection of Explosives and CBRN. Included is a method to identify hidden RDX-based explosives (pure and plastic ones) in the frequency domain study by Fourier Transformation, which has been complemented by the demonstration of improvement of the quality of the images captured commercially available THz passive cameras. The presented examples show large potential for the detection of small hidden objects at long distances (6-10 m). ??Complementing the results in the short-wavelength range, laser spectroscopy with a mid-infrared, room temperature, continuous wave, DFB laser diode and high performance DFB QCL have been demonstrated to offer excellent enabling sensor technologies for environmental monitoring, medical diagnostics, industrial and security applications.?? From the new source point of view a number of systems have been presented - From superconductors to semiconductors, e.g. Detection of Terahertz Waves from Superconducting Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+?? Intrinsic Josephson Junctions.?? The quest for a compact room temperature THz source and the recent advances in high power mid-IR QCLs lead to the development of a semiconductor THz source based on intracavity difference frequency generation. Furthermore, alternative electrically pumped THz sources based on the high emission efficiency predicted for polaritonic states in the ultra-strong coupling regime led to the demonstration of electroluminescent devices.?? Finally, antipolaritons in dispersive media were discussed and different aspects of the interaction of THz radiation with biomater were presented |

| Title | Terahertz and Mid Infrared Radiation : Generation, Detection and Applications |
| Author(s) | Pereira, Mauro F;Shulika, Oleksiy |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2011. |
| Description | XXVIII, 202 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Terahertz (THz) and Mid-Infrared (MIR) radiation?? (TERA-MIR) can be transmitted through nearly any material without causing biological harm. Novel and rapid methods of detection can be created with devices operation in these spectral ranges allowing scanning for weapons, detecting hidden explosives (including plastic landmines), controlling the quality of food and a host of other exciting applications.?? This book focuses on mathematical and physical aspects of the field, on unifying these two spectral domains (THz and MIR) with regard to common sources, detectors, materials and applications, and on key interdisciplinary topics. The main THz and MIR source is the quantum cascade laser (QCL). Thus significant attention is paid to the challenge of turning this advanced technology into affordable commercial devices so as to exploit its enormous potential. However other alternatives to THz QCLs are also presented, e.g.?? sub-terahertz imaging from avalanching GaAs bipolar transistors, Josephson junctions as THz sources, semiconductor materials for pulsed THz sources,?? superconducting THz electronics with Josephson vortices.?? In summary this book delivers a global picture of the state of the art in TERA-MIR generation, detection and applications |
