Remote Uv Raman Spectroscopy for Planetary Exploration Using a Miniature Spatial Heterodyne Raman Spectrometer
نویسندگان
چکیده
Overview: Raman spectroscopy is ideally suited for planetary exploration, because Raman spectra provide detailed molecular and structural information, very useful for geochemical measurements as well as to measure organic and inorganic biomarkers in the search for past or present life on other planets [1]. Raman scattering, a very weak process, can be relatively strong at deep UV wavelengths because of the 1/λ 4

A Miniature Spatial Heterodyne Uv Raman Spectrometer for Planetary Exploration: Proof of Principle for Smallsat Standoff Operations Using a Cell-phone
We are developing a new type of miniature Fourier transform (FT) Raman spectrometer; the spatial heterodyne Raman spectrometer (SHRS), which provides high spectral resolution in a very small system with high light throughput. The resolution of the SHRS is not dependent on a slit, so miniature systems, <1 cm footprint, can be made with high spectral resolution. The ability to miniaturize the SHR...

متن کاملTime-resolved Raman spectroscopy for in situ planetary mineralogy.
Planetary mineralogy can be revealed through a variety of remote sensing and in situ investigations that precede any plans for eventual sample return. We briefly review those techniques and focus on the capabilities for on-surface in situ examination of Mars, Venus, the Moon, asteroids, and other bodies. Over the past decade, Raman spectroscopy has continued to develop as a prime candidate for ...
متن کاملI Application of Raman Spectroscopy To Small Satellites in Exploring Solar Bodies
Raman Spectroscopy is an active remote sensing method that can map planetary mineral and chemical abundances and their distributions. Raman spectroscopy can also be used to study the chemical composition of various planetary atmospheres. The remote raman technique utilizes a low power laser to stimulate raman scattering at the substance and a spectrometer receives the returned raman spectrum at...
متن کاملDevelopment of the Mars Microbeam Raman Spectrometer (mmrs)
[1] Raman spectroscopy is a powerful tool for mineral characterization and for detection of water and organic and inorganic forms of carbon. The Mars microbeam Raman spectrometer (MMRS) is designed for close-up analysis of rocks and soils in planetary surface exploration. The MMRS consists of a probe (in a flight unit to be deployed by a robotic arm) and a spectrograph, laser source, and electr...
