Abstract
- Raman cross sections and spectra were measured for five synthetic opioid fentanyl analogs: fentanyl citrate, sufentanil citrate, alfentanil HCl, carfentanil oxalate, and remifentanil HCl. The measurements were performed with excitation wavelengths in the visible (532 nm) and near infrared (785 nm). In addition, density functional theory (DFT) calculations were employed to generate simulated spectra of the compounds and aid in identification of the observed spectral modes. These cross-section measurements and calculations were also used to assess results from a series of measurements of fentanyls cut with other powdered materials. These measurements are valuable for assessment of field-deployable Raman chemical sensors for detection of fentanyl and fentanyl analogs, including when mixed with other materials.
