Towards a FAST-CARS anthrax detector: CARS signal from dipicolinic acid Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • An overview is given of experimental results towards the realization of an alternative optical technique, the FAST CARS (Femtosecond Adaptive Spectroscopic Technique for Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Spectroscopy) approach. This proposal makes use of the CARS configuration, thus exploiting the specificity of the vibrational spectra, and attempts to maximize the signal intensity through a few enhancement mechanisms.
