In the evanescent field of the waveguide, cocaine absorbs the light at 5.8μm, which is emitted from a quantum cascade laser. The lowest measured concentration is 100μg/ml.Mid infraredwaveguide spectroscopycocaine detectionMid infrared waveguide spectroscopy for cocaine detection in liquid environmentstext::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
