Abstract

An experimental apparatus was developed to measure the triboluminescent emission spectrum from materials such as manganese doped zinc sulfide (ZnS:Mn) at ballistic velocities. This apparatus consists of an Ocean Optics S2000 spectrometer, modified projectiles, infrared chronograph, and a finder scope. This setup was used to record the first triboluminescent spectrum from ZnS:Mn generated during a ballistic impact. The details on the experimental setup, techniques, and results will be shown in this paper.
