Optica Sensing Congress

Laser Applications to Chemical, Security and Environmental Analysis (LACSEA)

Addresses all aspects of optical techniques and instrumentation for chemical, security and environmental analysis.

LACSEA covers diagnostics of combustion and industrial process gases, atmospheric sensing and monitoring and the analysis of gases that may contain chemical or biological agents. Sensing of liquids (e.g., aerosols) and solids (e.g., particulates or explosives) is also discussed.
