Abstract
An apparatus and method designed for generating and detecting reflected Terahertz waves using high-transition temperature (Tc) superconducting quantum devices (Josephson junctions) is described and the spectral response of reflected Terahertz radiation is mathematically analyzed to positively identify explosives strapped on a human or animal subject. This embodiment is well-suited for high traffic physical locations currently under surveillance such as security check points and also venues demanding significantly less obtrusive surveillance such as revolving entry doors, moving walkways, and entry gates of an airplane. The apparatus and method detects explosives through clothing without raising privacy concerns.
