Abstract :
Concerning several attacks using letter bombs within Europe in the last couple of years and the highly rising number of new drugs, there is a need for new kinds of detection devices for explosives and drugs. We present a postscanner on basis of Terahertz (THz) spectroscopy using novel chemometric methods for the evaluation of detected THz fingerprints.
