Optical Supramolecules for Chemical and Physical Sensing
Abstract
Proposal F49620-98-1-0203 addresses the diverse chemical and physical sensing needs of the United States Air Force. All the techniques developed in this program are based on monitoring a bright luminescence from a molecule or supramolecule reporter site. By controlling the rates for energy flow within the supra/molecular architecture, the intensity and lifetime of the luminescence may be adjusted to address chemosensing and physical sensing applications of interest to the Air Force. Sub-projects within F49620-98-1-0203 included he development of an optical chemosensor for the detection of polyaromatic signatures of JP4, and the development of new optical diagnostic techniques to measure vorticity and pressure over aerodynamic surfaces.
