Improved Tuning Fork for Terahertz Quartz-Enhanced Photoacoustic Spectroscopy [PDF]
Sensors, 2016 We report on a quartz-enhanced photoacoustic (QEPAS) sensor for methanol (CH3OH) detection employing a novel quartz tuning fork (QTF), specifically designed to enhance the QEPAS sensing performance in the terahertz (THz) spectral range. A discussion of the QTF properties in terms of resonance frequency, quality factor and acousto-electric transduction ...
