研究目的
To report the design, development and field deployment of a quantum cascade laser-based tunable diode laser spectroscopy (TDLS) system for high-sensitivity measurement of atmospheric CO and CO2.
研究成果
The measurements demonstrate the capability of TDLS for accurate long-term monitoring of air pollutants and GHGs in India, with the WMS technique being calibration-free, which is important for field measurements.
研究不足
The Peltier cooler in the QCL package cannot handle the heat load on the laser during the day, limiting measurements to night time.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The system uses two distributed-feedback quantum cascade lasers (DFB-QCLs) for CO and CO2 detection, employing wavelength modulation spectroscopy (WMS) for high sensitivity.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Atmospheric measurements were made at Gandhinagar from 19-25 July
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
20 DFB-QCLs (HHL-521 for CO and HHL-513 for CO2), laser diode controllers (Thorlabs, ITC4002QCL), photodetectors (Vigo, PVI-4TE-6), a digital LIA (Zurich Instruments, HF2LI), and a digital storage oscilloscope (Tektronix, TDS3054C).
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The system was deployed outdoors, with measurements made at night to avoid heat load on the laser.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The mole fraction and pressure of CO and CO2 were extracted from least-squares fit of simulated WMS lineshapes to experimental signals.
