    摘要: A compact sensor for detection of chemical and/or biological compounds in low concentration. The sensor comprises electromagnetic microcavities. The agent to be detected passes the microcavities, is absorbed and/or absorbed by the microcavities, and modifies the electromagnetic field inside the microcavities. After the agent has been adsorbed and/or absorbed, a probe beam is applied to the microcavities. The change of electromagnetic field is detected by the detector, and the frequency of the probe beam at which the resonance is observed, is indicative of a particular agent being present. A method for detecting chemical and/or biological compounds using the sensor.

    摘要: A water detecting apparatus includes a source of infra-red radiation which is reflected off an inner surface of a pipe wall onto a mirror directing the infra-red signal along a path to an infra-red detector connected by an electrical signal path to an electronic control. The path is interrupted by a rotating chopper having windows occupied by two optical filters. The first optical filter only passes an infra-red signal of wavelength 1900 nm which is absorbed by water, while the second optical filter only passes an infra-red signal of wavelength 2200 nm, another wavelength absorbed by water, but not to the same extent as the 1900 nm wavelength. The 2200 nm wavelength serves as a reference signal. When the strength of the infra-red signal path by the first optical filter decreases in relation to the strength of the infra-red reference signal path by the second optical filter, this is due to water on the surface absorbing the 1900 nm wavelength more than the 2200 nm wavelength, and the electronic control causes an indicator to indicate the presence of the water.

    摘要: A system and method are set forth for photoacoustical analysis of isotope and other compounds having telltale absorption wavelengths between 1700-2500 nm. The system and method includes a Co:Mg F2, an optical parametric oscillator (OPO), or a diode laser tunable between 1700-2500 nm which is directed into a sample at energies sufficient to generate detectable acoustical emissions. A microphone detects the emissions for processing and analysis. The system and method is adapted to detect stable isotope compounds such as 13CO2 as well as other chemical compounds. For non-gaseous compounds, a CO2 or diode laser is used to photoablate the gaseous sample containing the suspected compound.
