All optical quartz-enhanced photoacoustic spectroscopy
Acta Physica Sinica, 2013 A trace gas sensor based on all optical quartz-enhanced photoacoustic spectroscopy (QEPAS) is designed and demonstrated. An extra detection light beam is added to the traditional QEPAS setup to convert the amplitude of vibration of the quartz tuning fork, which is proportional to the concentration of the target gas, into the variation of the detection ...
