In one embodiment, the disclosure relates to a method for detecting and classifying an unknown substance in a sample. The method including the steps of (a) providing a spectrum for each of a predetermined number of reference substances; (b) detecting an area of interest on said unknown substance; (c) targeting said area of interest; (d) determining a spectrum from said area of interest; (e) comparing the determined spectrum with the spectrum of one of the reference substances; and (f) classifying said unknown substance based on the comparison of spectra.

The disclosure relates generally to methods and apparatus for using a fiber array spectral translator-based (“FAST”) spectroscopic system for performing spectral unmixing of a mixture containing multiple polymorphs. In an embodiment, a first spectrum of a mixture containing polymorphs of a compound is obtained using a photon detector and a fiber array spectral translator having plural fibers. A set of second spectra is provided where each spectrum of the set of second spectra may be representative of a different polymorph of the compound. The first spectrum and the set of second spectra may be compared, and based on the comparison, the presence of one or more polymorphs in the mixture may be determined.

The disclosure relates generally to methods and apparatus for obtaining a super resolution image of a sample using a fiber array spectral translator system. In one embodiment includes collecting photons from a sample at a first end of a fiber array spectral translator; delivering the photons from a second end of the fiber array spectral translator into a multiple detector rows of a photon detector; interpolating between the multiple detector rows to thereby form interpolated rows; and arranging an output of the multiple detector rows and the interpolated rows so as to obtain a super resolution image of the sample.

The present disclosure relates to a method and system for enhancing the ability of nuclear, chemical, and biological (“NBC”) sensors, specifically mobile sensors, to detect, analyze, and identify NBC agents on a surface, in an aerosol, in a vapor cloud, or other similar environment. Embodiments include the use of a two-stage approach including targeting and identification of a contaminant. Spectral imaging sensors may be used for both wide-field detection (e.g., for scene classification) and narrow-field identification.
