摘要

A team of European scientists have created a real-time, handheld chemical sensor with stand-off detection capabilities that will increase airport safety. The device can scan from a distance of up to 30 metres and is capable of instantaneous, real-time, unambiguous detection. Harnessing new photonics technology, the device uses spectroscopic sensors that read the unique frequencies, or 'signatures' given off when liquids or gasses interact with light.
