Goodrich Delivers High Res' Terahertz Spectrometer to U.S. Army

Mar 6 2007

Goodrich Corporation has delivered an industry first -- a high resolution, scanning terahertz spectrometer to be used by the U.S. Army. Under a contract, originally announced in 2005, Goodrich and the U.S. Army Research Laboratory in Adelphi, Md., have been involved in the development and production of this terahertz spectrometer.

The key features of the spectrometer include very narrow line widths over a large frequency range. This allows the user to determine the terahertz signatures of gasses, liquids and solids, with potential applications in differentiation of hazardous substances. The system was developed by Goodrich's Electro-Optical Systems business in Danbury, Conn.

According to Goodrich's Electro-Optical Systems Vice President & General Manager, Chris Holmes, "This innovation provides the U.S. government with truly unique protection and detection capabilities. Furthermore, our delivery of the first spectrometer marks a significant milestone for the evolution of this exciting new technology."
