Optomechanical energy enhanced BF-QEPAS for fast and sensitive gas sensing [PDF]

open access: yesPhotoacoustics
Traditional beat frequency quartz-enhanced photoacoustic spectroscopy (BF-QEPAS) are limited by short energy accumulation times and the necessity of a decay period, leading to weaker signals and longer measurement cycles.
