Abstract :
The absorption spectra of pure ethanol gas and ethanol gas mixed with air were characterized for examining the use of ethanol gas as a terahertz alcohol sensor. A comparison of the spectra of both gases showed that the absorbance of the latter was ~1.3 times greater than that of the former.
