Phase I

Contract Number: ----------
Start Date: 00/00/00    Completed: 00/00/00
Phase I year
1990
Phase I Amount
$49,750
An innovative, field-deployable system for detection and identification of organic chemical pollutants in water sources is the goal of this project. The system will utilize laser Raman light scattering as the spectroscopic sensor forming the core of the approach and will employ surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) combined with fiber-optic collection of the enhanced scattered light signal in its sampling system to augment the normally low-intensity Raman scattering signal from trace materials.

Potential Commercial Applications:
A fiber-optic sensor capable of detecting and identifying low levels of organic pollutants in water sources on site would be useful to industries and agencies concerned with water quality.

Phase II

Contract Number: ----------
Start Date: 00/00/00    Completed: 00/00/00
Phase II year
