Open-path Halon 1301 NDIR sensor with temperature compensation
摘要: Halon 1301 (bromotrifluoromethane) is a kind of fire extinguishing agent in aviation industry. Volume concentration measurement of Halon 1301 is necessary in the design of aircraft fire protection systems. In this research, an open-path Halon 1301 non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) sensor has been developed for in-situ measurement, a novel cavity-type absorption module was designed to get fast response and more compact structure. Experiment results show that measurement was remarkably affected by temperature. Therefore, temperature compensation algorithm was also studied in this thesis, which was proven to be effective within the range of 25 oC-105 oC.

Optimised Performance of Non-Dispersive Infrared Gas Sensors Using Multilayer Thin Film Bandpass Filters
摘要: In this work, performance improvements are described for a low-power consumption non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) methane (CH4) gas sensor using customised optical thin film bandpass filters (BPFs) centered at 3300 nm. BPFs shape the spectral characteristics of the combined mid-infrared III–V based light emitting diode (LED)/photodiode (PD) light source/detector optopair, enhancing the NDIR CH4 sensor performance. The BPFs, deposited using a novel microwave plasma-assisted pulsed DC sputter deposition process, provide room temperature deposition directly onto the temperature-sensitive PD heterostructure. BPFs comprise germanium (Ge) and niobium pentoxide (Nb2O5) alternating high and low refractive index layers, respectively. Two different optical filter designs are progressed with BPF bandwidths (BWs) of 160 and 300 nm. A comparison of the modelled and measured NDIR sensor performance is described, highlighting the maximised signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the minimised cross-talk performance benefits. The BPF spectral stability for various environmental temperature and humidity conditions is demonstrated.
