| Description |
This course will present the challenges of molecular detection & various spectroscopy based approaches that have been & are being developed to answer these challenges. The emphasis will be on the detection of species in the atmosphere & on surfaces exposed to the atmosphere for the detection of pollutants, greenhouse gases & trace species associated with explosives, hazardous chemicals & biological substances including gases of medical interest. Measurement approaches for both local sampling & stand off detection will be discussed. The course will include guest lectures from leaders in the development of the respective technologies. |
