This book provides unique perspectives on both state-of-the-art hyperspectral  techniques for the early-warning monitoring of water supplies against  chemical, biological and radiological (CBR) contamination effects as well as  the emerging spectroscopic science and technology base that will be used to  support an array of CBR defense and security applications in the future. The  technical content in this book lends itself to the non-traditional  requirements for point and stand-off detection that have evolved out of the US  joint services programs over many years. In particular, the scientific and  technological work presented seeks to enable hyperspectral-based sensing and  monitoring that is real-time; in-line; low in cost and labor; and easy to  support, maintain and use in military- and security-relevant scenarios.    Contents:  Chip-Size Wavelength Detectors (O Schmidt et al.); THz Spectroscopy  of Proteins in Water: Direct Absorption and Circular Dichroism (J Xu et al.);  Reagentless Bio-Sampling Methods for IR Detection (L D Doucette et al.);  Terahertz-Based Detectors Using Cold-Atom Optics (F J Crowne et al.); Deep-UV  Based Acousto-Optic Tunable Filter for Spectral Sensing Applications (N S  Prasad); Surface-Plasmon-Resonance Based Optical Sensing (N J M Horing & H L  Cui); The Spin-Hall Effect in  p -Type Bulk Semiconductors (S Y Liu et  al.); In-Line Optical Fiber Structures for Environmental Sensing (A Dhawan et  al.); and other papers.
