Abstract: A system and method for standoff detection of explosives and explosive residue. A laser light source illuminates a target area having an unknown sample producing luminescence emitted photons, scattered photons and plasma emitted photons. A first optical system directs light to the target area. A video capture device outputs a dynamic image of the target area. A second optical system collects photons, and directs collected photons to a first two-dimensional array of detection elements and/or to a fiber array spectral translator device which device includes a two-dimensional array of optical fibers drawn into a one-dimensional fiber stack. A spectrograph is coupled to the one-dimensional fiber stack of the fiber array spectral translator device, wherein the entrance slit of the spectrograph is coupled to the one dimensional fiber stack.

Abstract: A reflectometer (10) for measuring absorption of light in selected regions of the light spectrum by a diffuse reflector. The reflectometer (10) is adapted to precisely measure absorption resulting from the constituents present in body fluids. The sample (30) to be measured is illuminated by a focused light source (120) at an angle of 45° to its surface. The light diffusely reflected about the normal to the sample (30) falls on a small round bundle (200), the fibers are arranged into a narrow rectangle. This rectangle forms the entrance slit (230) for a concave holographic diffraction grating (230) spectrally separated over a flat field suitable for recording the spectrum on film or on an array of discrete detectors.

Abstract: In a real-time color comparator which performs color comparisons of sample objects to a reference color for the purpose of identification, sorting or matching two optical paths (15, 16) are positioned to collect the light from a reference object (12) and a sample object (11). The light outputs from the two paths are directed onto a spectral dispersive element in the form of a concave diffraction grating (20) that decomposes each light signal into its spectral constituents which are imaged on a dual photodetector array (30). The color signature from the reference and the color signature from the sample are compared.

Abstract: In an optical instrument, fiber optics are employed to receive light from a linear filament. The fiber optics are arranged into a plurality of light receiving bundle ends distributed around the linear filament and shaped into narrow rectangular slits aligned with the filament. The fibers from each of the receiving ends are equally distributed between two transmitting ends which direct the light through cylindrical lenses to opposite sides of a rotating filter wheel in a paddle wheel configuration. Light beams from the transmitting ends of the fiber optic bundles pass through filters on the filter wheel to additional fiber optic bundles which carry the received light to a probe.

Abstract: A novel device, method and systems disclosed managing the thermal challenges of LIBS laser components and a spectrometer in a handheld structure as well the use of simplified light signal collection which includes a bare fiber optic to collect the emitted light in close proximity to (or in contact with) the test material. In one example embodiment of the handheld LIBS device, a burst pulse frequency is 4 kHz is used resulting in a time between pulses of about 250µs which is a factor of 10 above that of other devices in the prior art. In a related embodiment, an active Q-switched laser module is used along with a compact spectrometer module using a transmission grating to improve LIBS measurement while substantially reducing the size of the handheld analyzer.
