{"product_id":"9789814452403","title":"Thz Identification For Defense And Security Purposes: Identifying Materials, Substances, And Items: Identifying Materials, Substances, and Items","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe principal aim of this book is to provide the reader with the understanding of the possibilities and features of THz identification as opposed to more traditional techniques such as X-rays, microwaves, etc. by elucidating and illustrating the principles of THz identification and its applications in a systematical way. Its scope includes a description of the physical principles of THz generation, transmission and detection, as well as of the applications of THz identification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe inherent advantages and potential benefits of the terahertz (THz) phenomenon, potential that encompasses various aspects such as THz sensing, imaging and material properties investigation with THz radiation for Defense (military) and security applications serve as an important stimulus for the interest in emerging THz science and technology, in particular, the very rapid growth of this new field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis text presents some of the leading fundamental research efforts towards the realization of practical THz devices applications for military and security applications. Relevant chapters contain fundamentals and\/or measurements of THz radiation in solid-state materials such as high explosives (e.g. HMX, PETN, RDX, etc.), biological tissues and organic-semiconductor nanostructures. Individual chapters also address the present capabilities of THz equipment for the effective utilization of screening packages and personnel. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book contains descriptions and analyses of the most innovative research in the field; the presented material introduces novel devices and\/or concepts that enhance THz source and detector performance — enabling completely new types of sensor performance at THz frequency (e.g. detection at molecular and nanoscale levels), and defining innovative sensing modalities (e.g. remote object and personnel identification) for defense and security.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBasics of Electromagnetism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMathematical Methods of Identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhysics of Producing and Detecting THz Waves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMethods and Technology for THz Sources, Detectors and Processing Electronics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectronics for Portable THz Devices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTHz Applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedical and Other Applications of THz Radiation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReadership:\u003c\/b\u003e Professionals in the field of defense and security and researchers (with college-level understanding of, or an advanced degree in physics or engineering).\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"World Scientific Publishing Company, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47185344364784,"sku":"9789814452403","price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9789814452403_p0.jpg?v=1763690892","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9789814452403","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
