Additional information

This system constitutes the world's smallest fluorescence lifetime sensor, reducing laboratory-scale equipment to lunchbox size. With St. Andrews, the sensor was subsequently applied to trace explosive vapours by measuring the fluorescence lifetime of a polymer. The resulting paper (DoI:10.1063/1.3624456) was in the top 5 downloads in August 2011 (aipadvances.aip.org/features/most_downloaded?month=8&year=2011) and featured on ScienceDaily (www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/08/110815113609.htm) Laser Focus World (www.laserfocusworld.com/articles/2011/12/fluorescence-sensors.html), Chemistry World, front page (www.rsc.org/chemistryworld/2012/04/sniffing-out-explosives) and BBC World News (www.bbc.co.uk/news/10257425). Aspects of the explosive sensing work are now being developed by St Andrews for applications in humanitarian demining, within a large European Project TIRAMISU (http://www.fp7-tiramisu.eu/).
