This project aims to create luminescent plastic optoelectronic materials that can detect airborne chemical warfare agents, particularly nerve agents. Such agents are often odourless and invisible at lethal concentrations, so technology must detect and identify them before exposure. The intended outcomes are design rules for sensitive and selective materials that can be used in a handheld infield detector to sense chemical warfare agents based on the materials’ photophysical properties, and new analytical methods and sensing protocols. This research will be of interest to security agencies in Australia and internationally, and will better protect our military.

该项目旨在创造发光塑料光电材料，可以检测空气中的化学战剂，特别是神经毒剂。这些物质在致命浓度下通常是无味和无形的，因此技术必须在暴露之前检测和识别它们。预期的成果是敏感和选择性材料的设计规则，这些材料可用于手持式内场探测器，以根据材料的物理化学性质来检测化学战剂，以及新的分析方法和传感协议。这项研究将引起澳大利亚和国际安全机构的兴趣，并将更好地保护我们的军队。
