Abstract
We report on the coupling of an NIR laser operating at 1064Â nm with a dispersive Raman spectrometer using a germanium array detector to measure the Stokes-shifted Raman spectra of explosives. By using a Ge array detector, spectral features from 250 to 1800Â cmâ1 could clearly be observed for the majority of compounds studied. Spectra were routinely obtained with 1-2Â min of data collection. The utility of this instrument is compared to other previous identified instrumental approaches, with particular regard to fieldability of a Raman-based explosive analyzer.
