Instrumentation for Spectroscopy of Impact Initiation of Reactive Materials

Abstract

Instrumentation was acquired that allowed for acquisition of emission spectra with high time and wavelength resolution. The acquired instruments were fabricated into a time-resolved spectroscopy system. This system will be used to study the emission from small particles of reactive nanomaterials that are initiated by impact with a flyer plate. The emission spectra so obtained will be used to develop a fundamental understanding of how these materials are initiated by shock waves.
