The Terahertz-based non-destructive evaluation of military-designated materials

Abstract: With regards to composite materials, the need for noninvasive evaluation of their structures, components, or systems they form continues to rise. It relates to the fact that composites, due to their two-phased (at least) composition, are vulnerable to different damages arising during their manufacturing or their use. Thus, there is a need to non-destructively monitor such materials especially when they are used in safety applications such as e.g., bulletproof vests and their damage may pose a real threat.

“…THz radiation is nonionizing (low photon energy which for 1 THz is ~4 meV); therefore, it is safe for the human body [9] which increases its competitiveness in relation to other methods, e.g., X-rays. THz radiation has already been successfully used to investigate various military-designated materials such as non-metallic composites [4,6,10], and rocket fuels [7].…”
