研究目的
To realize the remote detection of dangerous goods at an airport by exploring a new technical prototype based on photoacoustic spectroscopy telemetry for dangerous goods, specifically detecting trace acetylene gas.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrated a novel photoacoustic spectroscopy telemetry method for detecting trace acetylene gas at a distance of 6 m using a QTF, with results consistent with standard absorption coefficients. It provides a foundation for remote detection of dangerous goods, with plans for future quantitative analysis.
研究不足
The acetylene used contained trace impurities, and the method is currently qualitative; future work is needed for quantitative analysis. The system's sensitivity and range may be limited by noise and optical path adjustments.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The system uses a laser as an excitation source modulated by an electro-optic modulator to match the resonance frequency of a quartz tuning fork (QTF). Laser light scattered from the detected object is collected by an astronomical telescope at 6 m distance, and the QTF's vibration generates a voltage signal due to piezoelectric effects, which is amplified and processed to perform photoacoustic spectroscopy.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Acetylene gas produced from calcium carbide was used, containing trace impurities like hydrogen sulfide and phosphine, but these do not absorb at 1532 nm.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Includes a 1532-nm CW-DFB fiber-coupled diode laser (12 mW power), electro-optic modulator, astronomical telescope, QTF, preamplifier circuit, band-pass filter, phase-locked amplifier, computer, alignment jig, and colorimetric ware.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The laser wavelength is tuned by changing temperature, modulated light is absorbed by acetylene, scattered light is collected by the telescope, and the QTF's voltage signal is measured and analyzed.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is calculated using SNR = 20 log(Vs/Vn), and minimum detectable concentration is derived from Smin = C/SNR; data is processed with a phase-locked amplifier and computer.
