Project ISF: Using THz spectroscopy to identify corrosive waste and plastics Program DUIRI - Discovery Undergraduate Interdisciplinary Research Internship Term Spring 2024 Status Accepted Research Area AAE Description the project will concentrate on identification, sample prep, and THz measurements of household plastic waste. These spectroscopic measurements will be compared and matched to the open-source THz database (www.thzdb.org) and other literature available. A ML-based approach will be investigated to extrapolate observations to other THz signatures. Supervisor Vikas Tomar Mentor Type of work required THz spectroscopy measurements, literature survey to understand and contribute to sustainability Websites Qualifications Senior Credit Hours 3 Weekly Hours 10 (estimated)
