A novel instrument based on an improved off-axis alignment of integrated cavity output spectroscopy (OA-ICOS) in conjunction
with a wavelength modulation (WM) technique, was developed using a DFB diode laser operating in the near infrared at 1.573 μm
(6357.3 cm-1). The laser-based sensor employed a 44 cm optical cavity that provided an effective absorption path length of ∼68 m. A minimum
detectable absorption of approximately 3.6 ppmv Hz-1/2 or 2.3×10-7 Hz-1/2 per optical pass was obtained using second harmonic detection. We demonstrated that by implementation of the WM technique
to OA-ICOS in the near infrared, the detection sensitivity was improved by a factor of 14 compared to that obtained with OA-ICOS.
Measurements of CO2 mixing ratios in ambient air have been performed by using both OA-ICOS and WM-OA-ICOS techniques for performance comparison.

We have developed a standalone, user-friendly, multi-species ringdown spectrometer for in situ measurements of methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2), and a carbon dioxide isotope (13CO2). The instrument is based on near-infrared continuous-wave cavity ringdown spectroscopy (NIR cw-CRDS) and engineered to be
of approximately 16 kg with dimensions of 50 cm × 40 cm × 15 cm. The instrument design, optical configuration, electronic
control, and performance are described. CH4, CO2, and 13CO2 are measured at different wavelengths that are obtained through multiplexing two distributed feedback laser diodes with central
wavelengths at 1597 and 1650 nm. The spectrometer has low power consumption and runs for 4–6 h when powered by a standard
car battery. The instrument is operated either locally by interacting with a 7-inch touch screen or remotely via an Internet
connection. The 1-σ detection limits for CH4 and CO2 are 0.2 and 120 ppmv, respectively. The measurement uncertainty is better than ±4% of full-scale reading for CH4 and CO2 and ±1.5‰ for δ13C (part per thousand relative to the Pee Dee Belemnite scale). Measurement of each species is near real-time; switching from
measuring one species to another takes less than one minute. This work demonstrates a novel multiple-species CRDS-instrumentation
platform, which can be adopted for development of an array of ringdown spectrometers for portable, user-friendly, field analysis
of a variety of gases in environmental and industrial applications. Discussion of a future version of the spectrometer with
better detection sensitivity, higher accuracy, and a smaller geometry is also presented.

Cavity ringdown (CRD) absorption spectroscopy enables spectroscopic sensing of gases with a high sensitivity and accuracy. Instrumental improvements result in a new high-performance continuous-wave (cw) CRD spectrometer using a rapidly-swept cavity of simple design. It employs efficient data-acquisition procedures, high-reflectivity mirrors, a low-adsorption flow cell, and various compact fibre-optical components in a single-ended transmitter-receiver configuration suitable for remote sensing. Baseline noise levels in our latest cw-CRD experiments yield a competitive noise-equivalent absorption limit of ∼5×10-10 cm-1Hz-1/2, independent of whatever molecules are to be detected. Measurements in the near-infrared wavelength range of 1.51–1.56 μm yield sub-ppmv (i.e., ppbv or better) sensitivity in the gas phase for several representative molecules (notably CO2, CO, H2O, NH3, C2H2, and other hydrocarbons). By measuring spectroscopic features in the 1.525 μm band of C2H2 gas, we realise detection limits of 19 nTorr (2.5×10-11 atm) of neat C2H2 (Doppler-limited at low pressure) and 0.37 ppbv of C2H2 in air (pressure-broadened at 1 atm). Our cw-CRD spectrometer is a high-performance sensor in a relatively simple, low-cost, compact instrument that is amenable to chemical analysis of trace gases in medicine, agriculture, industry, and the environment.

Astronomical constraints on a possible cosmologicalvariation of the proton-to-electron mass ratio μ=mp/me are discussed. The analysis of H2 lines observed in thespectra of distant quasars Q 0405-443 (zem=3.02) andQ 0347-383 (zem=3.22) is performed [1] using, partly, very precise values of H2 frequencies from new laboratorymeasurements [2] and sensitivity coefficients from newaccurate calculations [2,3]. A possibleμ-variation
of Δμ/ μ= (2.0±0.6)×10-5over 12 Gyr is not excluded. However, the discussion of systematicerrors show that some may well be underestimated. Thus,
the abovevalue should be treated as the most stringent limit the cosmologicalvariation of μ at z≈2.6 - 3.0 (12 Gyr ago). 相似文献

Intracavity absorption spectroscopy with a broadband Er3+-doped fiber laser is applied for the measurements of several molecular species revealing quantitative information about the
gas concentration, temperature and chemical reactions in flames. The spectral range of measurements extends from 6200 cm−1 to 6550 cm−1 with the proper choice of the fiber length and by moving an intracavity lens. With a pulsed laser applied in this experiment,
the sensitivity to absorption corresponds to an effective absorption path length of 3 km assuming the cavity is completely
filled with the sample. For a cw laser, the effective absorption path length is estimated to be 50 km. Absorption spectra
of various molecules such as CO2, CO, H2O, H2S, C2H2 and OH were recorded separately in the cell and/or in low-pressure methane and propane flames. The presented measurements
demonstrate simultaneous in situ detection of three molecular products of chemical reactions at different flame locations.
Variation of the relative strengths of OH absorption lines with the temperature enables the estimation of the local flame
temperature. The sensitivity of this laser does not depend on the broadband cavity losses and it can be used for in situ measurements
of absorption spectra in hostile environments such as contaminated samples, flames or combustion engines. The presented technique
can be applied for various diagnostic purposes, such as in environmental, combustion and plasma research, in medicine and
in the determination of stable isotope ratios. 相似文献

A fluorophotometric method for the determination of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) using fluorescin was developed. This method was based on the oxidative reaction of fluorescin, a colorless, non-fluorescent
lactoid fluorescein, by H2O2 to give highly fluorescein fluorescence emission. In the determination of H2O2, the calibration curve exhibited linearity over the H2O2 concentration range of 1.5–310 ng mL−1 at an emission wavelength of 525 nm with an excitation of 500 nm and with relative standard deviations (n = 6) of 2.51%, 2.48%, and 1.31% for 3.1 ng mL−1, 30.8 ng mL−1, and for 308 ng mL−1 of H2O2, respectively. The detection limit for H2O2 was 1.9 ng mL−1 six blank determinations was performed (ρ = 6). This proposed method was applied to detection of other reactive oxygen species and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) such
as singlet oxygen (1O2), hydroxyl radical (•OH), peroxynitrite (ONOO−) etc., and it was possible to detect them with a high sensitivity. In addition, this proposed method was applied to the recovery
tests of H2O2 in calf serum, human saliva, rain water, and wheat noodles; the results were satisfactory. 相似文献

The present paper describes a compact and cryogen-free, quantum cascade laser based absorption spectrometer (QCLAS) designed
for in situ, continuous and high precision isotope ratio measurements of atmospheric CO2. The mobile instrument incorporates several new features including a novel astigmatic multi-pass cell assembly, a quasi-room
temperature quantum cascade laser, thermoelectrically cooled detectors as well as a new retrieval approach. The combination
of these features now makes it possible to measure isotope ratios of ambient CO2 with a precision of 0.03 and 0.05‰ for δ13C and δ18O, respectively, using a 100 s integration time. A robust and optimized calibration procedure was developed to bring the retrieved
isotope ratios on an absolute scale. This assures an accuracy better than 0.1‰ under laboratory conditions. The instrument
performance was also assessed in a field campaign in which the spectrometer operated autonomously and provided mixing ratio
values for the main three CO2 isotopologues at one second time resolution. An accuracy of 0.2‰ was routinely obtained for both isotope ratios during the
entire period. The results were in excellent agreement with the standard laboratory-based isotope ratio mass spectrometer
measurements made on field-collected flask samples. A few illustrative examples are used to depict the potential of this optical
method in atmosphere–biosphere research.

The impact of design parameters of a spectrophone for quartz-enhanced photoacoustic spectroscopy on its performance was investigated.
The microresonator of spectrophone is optimized based on an experimental study. The results show that a 4.4 mm-long tube with
0.6 mm inner diameter yields the highest signal-to-noise ratio, which is ∼30 times higher than that of a bare QTF at gas pressures
between 400 and 800 Torr. The optimized configuration demonstrates a normalized noise-equivalent absorption coefficient (1σ) of 3.3×10−9 cm−1W/Hz1/2 for C2H2 detection at atmospheric pressure. The effect of the changing carrier gas composition is studied. A side-by-side sensitivity
comparison between QEPAS and conventional photoacoustic spectroscopy technique is reported. 相似文献

2 combination bands around 1.58 μm. Suitable lines in this spectral region have been identified, and absolute absorption cross
sections have been determined through single-pass absorption spectroscopy and confirmed in the Doppler linewidth regime using
cavity enhanced absorption spectroscopy (CEAS). The desire for a sensitive system potentially applicable to H2S sensing at atmospheric pressure has led to an investigation on suitable transitions using wavelength modulation spectroscopy
(WMS). The set-up sensitivity has been calculated as 1.73×10−8 cm−1 s1/2, and probing the strongest line at 1576.29 nm a minimum detectable concentration of 700 ppb under atmospheric conditions
has been achieved. Furthermore, pressure broadening coefficients for a variety of buffer gasses have been measured and correlated
to the intermolecular potentials governing the collision process; the H2S–H2S dimer well depth is estimated to be 7.06±0.09 kJ mol−1. 相似文献

Laser exposure of a suspension of either gold or palladium nanoparticles in aqueous solutions of UO2Cl2 of natural isotope abundance was experimentally studied. Picosecond Nd:YAG lasers at peak power of 1011–1013 W/cm2 at the wavelength of 1.06–0.355 μm were used as well as a visible-range Cu vapor laser at a peak power of 1010 W/cm2. The composition of colloidal solutions before and after laser exposure was analyzed using atomic absorption and gamma spectroscopy
in the 0.06–1 MeV range of photon energy. Real-time gamma spectroscopy was used to characterize the kinetics of nuclear reactions
during laser exposure. It was found that laser exposure initiated nuclear reactions involving both 238U and 235U nuclei via different channels in H2O and D2O. The influence of saturation of both the liquid and nanoparticles by gaseous H2 and D2 on the kinetics of nuclear transformations was found. Possible mechanisms of observed processes are discussed. 相似文献

This work is an attempt to search for highly selective sensing materials for ethanol vapor. The electrical conductivity response
of ZSM-5, Y, and mordenite zeolites towards ethanol vapor have been investigated for the effects of the framework, the charge
balancing cation type, and the Si/Al ratio. All zeolites were characterized using XRD, FT-IR, SEM, TGA, BET, and NH3-TPD techniques. For the effect of the zeolite framework type, H+Y has a higher electrical conductivity sensitivity value than that of H+MOR because of a greater pore volume and available surface area. For the effect of the charge balancing cation, all NH4
+ZSM-5 zeolites (Si/Al = 23, 50, 80, 280) show negative responses, whereas the H+Y zeolites (Si/Al = 30, 60, 80) and the H+MOR zeolites (Si/Al = 30, 200) show positive responses. These differing behaviors can be traced to the electrostatic field
at the cation sites in zeolite micropores, and their hydrophilic–hydrophobic character, which affect the adsorption properties
of the zeolites. For the effect of Si/Al ratio, the electrical conductivity sensitivity towards the ethanol decreases with
increasing Si/Al ratio or decreasing Al content, and there is a lesser degree of interaction between ethanol molecules and
the active sites of the zeolites due to its higher hydrophobicity and the lower amount of cations. However, the H+Y (Si/Al = 5.1) and the H+MOR (Si/Al = 19) zeolites have lower conductivity sensitivity than those of H+Y (Si/Al = 30) and H+MOR (Si/Al = 30), respectively. The interactions between the C2H5OH molecules and the zeolites with respect to the electrical conductivity sensitivity were investigated and verified through
infrared spectroscopy. 相似文献

Sensitive absorption measurements in the near-infrared region using off-axis integrated-cavity-output spectroscopy 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A novel instrument that employs a high-finesse optical cavity as an absorption cell has been developed for sensitive measurements
of gas mixing ratios using near-infrared diode lasers and absorption-spectroscopy techniques. The instrument employs an off-axis
trajectory of the laser beam through the cell to yield an effective optical path length of several kilometers without significant
unwanted effects due to cavity resonances. As a result, a minimum detectable absorption of approximately 1.4×10-5 over an effective optical path of 4.2 km was obtained in a 1.1-Hz detection bandwidth to yield a detection sensitivity of
approximately 3.1×10-11 cm-1 Hz-1/2. The instrument has been used for sensitive measurements of CO, CH4, C2H2 and NH3.

We report on the design and laboratory performance of a portable infrared absorption spectrometer for the measurement of the
isotopic ratio 13C:12C in CO2. The design relies on optical feedback cavity-enhanced absorption spectroscopy in the 2 μm spectral region to achieve optimal
performance at ambient CO2 concentrations. The prototype instrument measures δ13C, relative to a standard calibration bottle, with a precision of ±0.7‰ for a 20-s integration time and with an automatic
recalibration every 6 min. The absolute accuracy obtained is 0.9‰. The principal performance limitations are discussed along
with improvements currently being implemented for the second generation instrument.

Eu(III)-9-acridinecarboxylate (9-ACA) complex was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, conductivity measurement,
IR spectroscopy, thermal analysis, mass spectroscopy, 1H-NMR, fluorescence and ultraviolet spectra. The results indicated that the composition of this complex is [Eu(III)-(9-ACA)2(NCS)(C2H5OH)2] 2.5 H2O and the oxygen of the carbonyl group coordinated to Eu(III). The interaction between the complex with nucleotides guanosine
5′- monophosphate (5′-GMP), adenosine 5′-diphosphates (5′-ADP), inosine (5′-IMP) and CT-DNA was studied by fluorescence spectroscopy.
The fluorescence intensity of Eu(III)-9-acridinecarboxylate complex was enhanced with the addition of CT-DNA. The effect of
pH values on the fluorescence intensity of Eu(III) complex was investigated. Under experimental conditions, the linear range
was 9–50 ng mL−1 for calf thymus DNA (CT- DNA) and the corresponding detection limit was 5 ng mL−1. The results showed that Eu(III)-(9-ACA)2 complex binds to CT-DNA with stability constant of 2.41 × 104 M . 相似文献

First laser spectroscopic measurements of the 6s5d3D1-6s6p1P1 and 6s5d3D2-6s6p1P1 transitions in several isotopes of atomic barium have been performed. The hyperfine structure of these transitions was optically
resolved and isotope shifts for even and odd isotopes were determined. The isotope shifts show a deviation from their expected
behavior for odd isotopes in an analysis based on King-plots. This observation puts atomic structure calculations at test
because available theories do not predict this. A profound understanding of the wavefunctions for heavy alkaline earth systems
like barium (Ba) and radium (Ra) is essential for a theoretical evaluation of their sensitivity to fundamental symmetry breaking
effects such as they could be observed, e.g., through permanent electric dipole moments. Further the absolute frequency of
the 6s2
1S0-6s6p3P1 intercombination line in 138Ba was determined to be 12 636.6232(1) cm-1. 相似文献

A sensor based on quartz-enhanced photoacoustic spectroscopy (QEPAS) was evaluated for the detection of trace levels of ethylene
at atmospheric pressure using a fiber coupled DFB diode laser emitting in the 1.62 μm spectral range. A noise-equivalent QEPAS signal of ∼4 ppm C2H4 was achieved for a 0.7 s data acquisition time using wavelength-modulation with a second-harmonic detection scheme on the
strongest C2H4 absorption peak at 6177.14 cm−1 with an average optical power of ∼15 mW. Improved detection sensitivity of 0.5 and 0.3 ppm C2H4 (1σ) was demonstrated using longer averaging time of 70 and 700 s, respectively. Important characteristics for the QEPAS based
sensor operation in real-world conditions are presented, particularly the influence of external temperature variations. Furthermore,
the response time of the ethylene sensor was measured in different configurations and it is shown that the QEPAS technique
can provide a response time in a few seconds range even without active gas flow. 相似文献

A fast-response (100 kHz) tunable diode laser absorption sensor is developed for measurements of temperature and H2O concentration in shock tubes, e.g. for studies of combustion chemistry. Gas temperature is determined from the ratio of
fixed-wavelength laser absorption of two H2O transitions near 7185.60 cm-1 and 7154.35 cm-1, which are selected using design rules for the target temperature range of 1000–2000 K and pressure range of 1–2 atm. Wavelength
modulation spectroscopy is employed with second-harmonic detection (WMS-2f) to improve the sensor sensitivity and accuracy.
Normalization of the second-harmonic signal by the first-harmonic signal is used to remove the need for calibration and minimize
interference from emission, scattering, beam steering, and window fouling. The laser modulation depth for each H2O transition is optimized to maximize the WMS-2f signal for the target test conditions. The WMS-2f sensor is first validated
in mixtures of H2O and Ar in a heated cell for the temperature range of 500–1200 K (P=1 atm), yielding an accuracy of 1.9% for temperature
and 1.4% for H2O concentration measurements. Shock wave tests with non-reactive H2O–Ar mixtures are then conducted to demonstrate the sensor accuracy (1.5% for temperature and 1.4% for H2O concentration) and response time at higher temperatures (1200–1700 K, P=1.3–1.6 atm).

The charged Higgs boson decays H±→W±A1 and H±→W±Hi are studied in the framework of the next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model (NMSSM). It is found that the decay rate
for H±→W±A1 can exceed the rates for the τ±ν and tb channels both below and above the top–bottom threshold. The dominance of H±→W±A1 is most readily achieved when A1 has a large doublet component and small mass. We also study the production process pp→H±A1 at the LHC followed by the decay H±→W±A1, which leads to the signature W±A1A1. We suggest that pp→H±A1 is a promising discovery channel for a light charged Higgs boson in the NMSSM with small or moderate tanβ and dominant decay
mode H±→W±A1. This W±A1A1 signature can also arise from the Higgsstrahlung process pp→W±H1 followed by the decay H1→A1A1. It is shown that there exist regions of parameter space where these processes can have comparable cross sections and we
suggest that their respective signals can be distinguished at the LHC by using appropriate reconstruction methods.
