Remote detection of chem/bio hazards via coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy
Abstract
Examine the feasibility of Femtosecond Adaptive Spectroscopic Technique applied to coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (FAST CARS) for a real time remote detection of hazardous microparticles in atmosphere and to evaluate the range of distances for typical species and the parameters of laser system that drive the limits of applicability. Stevens Institute of Technology will formulate a semiclassical theory of nonlinear scattering to estimate the number of detectable photons from a prototype molecule at a distance. The theory will incorporate enhanced quantum coherence built in the system by femtosecond pulses and nonlinear optical processes. - - - - - - - -
