Terahertz study of 1,3,5-trinitro-s-triazine by time-domain and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy
نویسندگان
چکیده
This letter describes the use of THz time-domain spectroscopy (TDS) applied in transmission to the secondary explosive 1,3,5 trinitro-s-triazine. Samples were also subjected to Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy over the same range for comparison. A detailed spectroscopy study is presented. General agreement between results from both methods confirms the absorption features found. A comparison study with computer molecular simulations shows that THz-TDS is sensitive to collective modes or vibrational modes of material. © 2004 American Institute of Physics.

Polarization orientation dependence of the far infrared spectra of oriented single crystals of 1,3,5-trinitro-S-triazine (RDX) using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy.
The far infrared spectra of (100), (010), and (001)-oriented RDX single crystals were measured as the crystal was rotated about the axis perpendicular to the polarization plane of the incident radiation. Absorption measurements were taken at temperatures of both 20 K and 295 K for all rotations using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. A number of discrete absorptions were found ranging from 10...

The absorption spectrum of the explosive 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazacyclohexane sRDXd has been measured using a conventional Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and by terahertz pulsed spectroscopy. Seven absorption features in the spectral range of 5–120 cm−1 have been observed and identified as the fingerprint of RDX. Furthermore, the spatial distribution of individual chemical substances...

Survey spectra of single-crystal HMX (octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine), RDX (hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine), and PETN (pentaerythritol tetranitrate) were acquired in the region from 10 to 80 cm(-1) using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. The spectra were taken at temperatures ranging from 8.4 to 300 K. Generally, the spectra show multiple absorption peaks in the ran...

In the present research, silica bonded n-propyl-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triamine (SPTT) was synthesized by direct incorporation of chloropropyl groups through co-condensation of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and 3-chloropropyl trimethoxysilane (CPTMS) and subsequent grafting the melamine onto the propyl groups via simple nucleophilic substitution reaction. The catalyst has been characterized by ...
متن کاملA direct comparison between terahertz time-domain spectroscopy and far-infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy
We perform a comprehensive comparison between terahertz ~THz! time-domain spectroscopy and conventional far-infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy, including radiation source, detector, signal to noise ratio, bandwidth, availability, applications, and their own uniqueness. In terms of signal to noise ratio, THz time-domain spectroscopy is advantageous at low frequencies under 3 THz, while Four...
