The most comprehensive resource available on the many applications of portable spectrometers, including material not found in any other published work Portable Spectroscopy and Spectrometry: Volume Two is an authoritative and up-to-date compendium of the diverse applications for portable spectrometers across numerous disciplines. Whereas Volume One focuses on the specific technologies of the portable spectrometers themselves, Volume Two explores the use of portable instruments in wide range of fields, including pharmaceutical development, clinical research, food analysis, forensic science, geology, astrobiology, cultural heritage and archaeology. Volume Two features contributions by a multidisciplinary team of experts with hands-on experience using portable instruments in their respective areas of expertise. Organized both by instrumentation type and by scientific or technical discipline, 21 detailed chapters cover various applications of portable ion mobility spectrometry (IMS), infrared and near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, Raman and x-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy, smartphone spectroscopy, and many others. Filling a significant gap in literature on the subject, the second volume of Portable Spectroscopy and Spectrometry: * Features a significant amount of content published for the first time, or not available in existing literature * Brings together work by authors with assorted backgrounds and fields of study * Discusses the central role of applications in portable instrument development * Covers the algorithms, calibrations, and libraries that are of critical importance to successful applications of portable instruments * Includes chapters on portable spectroscopy applications in areas such as the military, agriculture and feed, hazardous materials (HazMat), art conservation, and environmental science Portable Spectroscopy and Spectrometry: Volume Two is an indispensable resource for developers of portable instruments in universities, research institutes, instrument companies, civilian and government purchasers, trainers, operators of portable instruments, and educators and students in portable spectroscopy courses.

When I first learned that Richard Crocombe, Pauline Leary, and Brooke Kammrath were editing a two‐volume series of books that cover the development of field‐portable analytical technologies and the numerous applications of these technologies, I was excited because I knew that these scientists had the experience, knowledge, and energy to produce a great product, books that I will immediately add to my library.
So, who am I to make such a bold evaluation of these books? My name is John A. Reffner and I am currently a tenured full Professor of Forensic Science at the City University of New York's John Jay College of Criminal Justice. I have also received several distinguished awards including some for developments that enabled portable spectroscopic instruments. After graduating from Akron University in 1956, I joined the “Works Technical Analytical Laboratory” at the B.F. Goodrich Tire and Rubber Company. This experience taught me the valuable lesson that chemistry is essential for a major corporation to be successful, a lesson which was continually reinforced throughout my almost 65 years of professional experiences. I have had the good fortune of working with many prominent scientists and business leaders. I have seen how science and chemistry change the world. I have also seen how consumer demands drive technology and innovation, leading us to where we are today, immersed in essential portable technologies that have changed the world.
A short story that exemplifies my passion for the field of portable instruments is the introduction of the Dura Scope at the Pittsburgh Conference in 1998, and the subsequent development of the TravelIR portable infrared spectrometer. Our SensIR Technologies team, which included the likes of Don Sting, Jim Fitzpatrick, Don Wilks, and Bob Burch, introduced this new micro‐ATR (Attenuated Total Reflection) accessory for Fourier transform infrared (FT‐IR) spectrometers. While it might not seem that such an accessory could make a system portable, a scientist from a major supplier of chemicals was very excited about the product. In his work, he traveled to paper companies to resolve customer complaints. While he did not need an ATR accessory, what he did need was a small FT‐IR, possibly an ATR‐based infrared system, that could fit in the overhead storage compartment of a commercial airplane. As a result of these conversations, the TravelIR was born. The TravelIR was the first portable infrared spectrometer delivered to the market, enabling the identification of an infinite number of samples at the sample site.
The novelty of the TravelIR attracted a lot of interest, but portability was low on the list of requirements by a majority of end users. That was, of course, until 11 September 2001. One week after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, letters containing anthrax spores were delivered to members of the news media, and to United States Senators Tom Daschle and Patrick Leahy. A total of five people died from exposure to these spores, and 17 others were infected. These terrorist events had a significant impact on field‐portable analytical instruments. There became an immediate need to identify dangerous chemicals, including white powders, quickly and reliably at the sample site. This need catalyzed the portable‐spectroscopy market.
Infrared spectrometers like the TravelIR were well suited as a chemical identifier and could meet the analytical needs of field users, but it was clear that simply having a small footprint capable of providing reliable answers to a trained scientist was not enough. Systems for deployment needed to endure the rough handling and environmental conditions required of a valid field‐portable analytical device. In addition, it was necessary for these systems to collect spectral data and translate those data into actionable results in real time by a nonscientist operator with minimal training. SensIR's follow‐up to the TravelIR was a product known as the HazMatID. This system was ruggedized to meet aggressive military specification standards including those for ruggedness and total immersion in decontamination solution. The “genie was out of the bottle” and the need for field‐portable instruments exploded.
As you read the 44 chapters of these books, you will see the versatility in both the instrumentation and technologies, as well as the tremendous impact these systems have upon our society. Whether considering how portable spectrometers are used in hazmat and military operations to assess safety and defense concerns, by archaeologists and other cultural historians to help understand artwork and ancient civilizations, or the value these systems offer to practitioners of the forensic, pharmaceutical, and geological sciences, the reader will appreciate the challenges to their development, the breadth of their applicability, and the irreplaceable value they afford to the end user.

The rapid growth of portable spectroscopy and spectrometry technologies in the last 20 years can be attributed to their diverse applications in numerous scientific fields. The role applications play in instrument development will be discussed in depth in the Introduction chapter of this volume, as well as the reciprocating influence advancements in instrumentation have on creating new applications. While Volume 1 of this book focuses on the technologies of the portable spectrometers themselves, Volume 2 brings together 21 chapters on assorted applications. There are also two chapters at the start that focus on algorithm and spectral library development (by Zhang et al. and Schreyer, respectively), which are essential for successful applications of portable instruments. The editors feel that this fills a considerable void in the literature because much of the content contained herein has never been published, while the rest is spread out in a range of articles and instrument company application notes.
The application chapters are organized both by instrumentation type and also by scientific or technical disciplines. There are chapters devoted to applications of portable ion mobility spectrometry, infrared, Raman (including the surface‐enhanced and spatially offset techniques), near‐infrared (with a second chapter on spectral transfer from benchtop to handheld spectrometers), X‐ray fluorescence, and smartphone spectroscopy. We also have chapters written on discipline‐specific applications of portable instrumentation, specifically in the fields of Pharmaceuticals, Forensic Science, Military, HazMat, Clinical, Food Analysis, Field Geology and Astrobiology, Cultural Heritage, and Archaeology. Some disciplines that utilize portable instruments are not included in these specialty chapters because the editors feel that their content is comprehensively covered in other chapters. An example of this is Environmental applications, which are thoroughly represented in chapters devoted to portable instruments (i.e. GC‐MS, Raman, and infrared).
From the inception of this book, it has been the intention of the editors to select recognized experts with hands‐on experience to compose in‐depth, authoritative chapters in their areas of expertise. The editors are grateful to the authors for their contributions, and also to the third‐party experts who reviewed chapters to ensure their quality and completeness. The ultimate objective of this volume is to provide readers with a comprehensive collection of applications for portable spectrometers, which will be valuable for both their scientific knowledge and work.
It must be noted that in an edited book of this kind, in which the chapters come from varied authors with assorted backgrounds and fields of study, there will inevitably be heterogeneity in the arrangement and style of each chapter. The editors hope that this will not detract from the usefulness of this book but instead reflect the diversity that is inherent in the myriad of applications of portable instrumentation.

As described in Volume 1 of this book, we regard a portable spectrometer as an analytical instrument that generates clear answers for its operator when it is carried to the sample, i.e. a spectrometer to the sample, rather than a sample to the spectrometer. The operators of these instruments are rarely scientists – although that is advantageous for several applications – but instead may be hazardous‐material technicians, armed‐services personnel, or even scrap‐metal dealers. In many instances, level‐A personnel protective equipment (PPE) must be worn during the analysis.
Operators rely on the instrument to obtain accurate and actionable information. In some cases, the result might be a sample identification; in others, it may be a pass/fail visual or audible alarm (green light/red light). In order to achieve this, the portable instrument has to process the spectrum or spectra to generate the result, without any intervention by the operator. Therefore, for identification, a combination of spectral libraries or databases is required, in conjunction with a suitable matching algorithm. For quantitation, a validated calibration is required, and again a suitable algorithm must have been used to generate that calibration. Consequently, considerations such as PPE, databases, calibrations, and algorithms are all essential components of the instrument (Figure 1.1).
The initial investigations and proof of concept of a new application for a portable spectrometer may be carried out using existing laboratory instruments, including determination of the spectral range, signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR), and spectral resolution required. In general, though, it is best to develop the final application on the new product itself, because it will have an identical resolution, spectral range, etc., to the commercial product. Development of potential applications for a portable spectrometer typically begins as a response to an unmet market need. For instance, over many years, vendors of portable X‐ray fluorescence (XRF) instruments were asked at trade shows whether their products could distinguish grades of stainless steel, especially “H” and “L” grades, differentiated based upon levels of carbon. H grades have between 0.04 and 0.1% carbon, while L grades have less than 0.03% carbon. The ability to distinguish these in the field is important because L grades, while more expensive, provide better corrosion resistance after in‐situ welding where annealing is not possible. Handheld XRF is not sensitive to carbon, so the enquiries spurred investigations and subsequent development of portable optical emission (OES) instruments, and, more recently, portable laser‐induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) systems.
Figure 1.1 A successful portable spectroscopy platform must extend beyond the spectrometer (engine) performance, and also include consideration of operational requirements, environmental conditions, and application infrastructure. The algorithm, database, and calibration required to process one or more spectra into results are key components.
