In the Michigan state university research team have developed laser, can help detect roadside bombs.
Laser, this is a simple laser pointer, in powerpoint forenglish similar to those used in the output of large area, and can be used for scanning and testing of improvisation improvised explosive device, according to its developer.
Improvised explosive device testing-account-in Afghanistan and Iraq coalition soldiers died, about 60% are difficult, because the environment introduces a lot of chemical compounds, mask choice, one is the few attempts to detect molecules, marcos Dantus said, professor of chemistry at Michigan state university and biological photon solutions founder.
"There is the sensitivity of the molecular structure identification and avoid unnecessary evacuation explosives missed alarm and the key to building road closed," Dantus said.
Because can be in populated areas found ieds, used to detect these weapons method must be intact, from all kinds of similar compounds, in an urban environment, can find differences. However, the new laser can make a difference, even number one over one billion grams of a small portion of the small.
Dantus team have developed a laser, combined with the feet of a molecular, that they shook, and the use of "listen" and identify different long pulse short pulse "chords". Chords, including different vibration frequency only mark every molecule, it was like a fingerprint. High sensitivity of the laser can work at a camera at the same time, and allows users to scan questionable place from a safe distance.
"Laser and method, we had originally planned to microscope, but we can adapt to and to expand its use of the explosive detection confrontation the effectiveness proof, Dantus said."
