Abstract: | 2 monitor designed for field applications using room-temperature diode lasers are presented. Near-infrared DFB lasers operating
at 1.57 μm and around 2.0 μm have been used for CO2 measurements. At ambient concentration levels a resolution of more than two orders of magnitude has been demonstrated at
1.57 μm, at 2 μm the precision is in the order of 0.1 ppm CO2, and for trace analysis a detection limit of 10 ppb has been obtained. The measurements demonstrate the capability of near-infrared
DFB diode lasers for the precise determination of CO2 concentrations as required for climatological, medical, or industrial applications.
