STANDOFF SENSING AND IMAGING OF EXPLOSIVE RELATED CHEMICAL AND BIO-CHEMICAL MATERIALS USING THz-TDS

We report the sensing and imaging of explosive related chemical and bio-chemical materials by using terahertz time domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) at standoff distance. The 0.82 THz absorption peak of RDX is observed at a distance up to 30 m away from the emitter and receiver. Multiple absorption features of RDX, 2,4-DNT and Glutamic Acid are identified by using a large scale 2-D imaging system. These results support the feasibility of using THz-TDS technique in remote sensing and detection of chemical materials.
