Abstract
A system for detecting explosive materials. The system includes radiated high power electromagnetic radiation at one or more frequencies in the millimeter wave spectrum or above to interact with a sample and be reflected therefrom. The system also includes at least one electromagnetic sensor to measure emissions at harmonic frequencies and characteristics unique to one or more explosive materials. The system also includes a processor to collate and maintain a lookup table to identify specific explosive material types.
