Sandia Develops Next Generation Of Screening Devices25 January 2007
Nanotechquire.com (Albuquerque, New MExico)— Researchers at Sandia National Laboratories are developing screening devices that will identify hazardous and toxic materials even if concealed by clothing and packaging materials. The goal is building a highly integrated miniaturized terahertz transmitter-receiver (transceiver) that could make a number of applications possible. In 2008, the researchers expect to have a working prototype capable of detecting the materials and chemicals by reading distinctive molecular spectral “signatures.” Source: http://nanotechwire.com/news.asp?nid=4247 (Reliability: 9)
