Off-axis integrated cavity output spectroscopy (OA-ICOS) has attracted much interest because it potentially allows highly sensitive field measurements with robust optical alignment. In this paper, a novel instrument that employs a high-finesse optical cavity as an absorption cell has been developed for sensitive measurements of multi-component gases NO, HO and CO in the atmosphere based on a mid-infrared quantum cascade laser (QCL) and OA-ICOS. In order to improve the energy utilization and increase the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the signal, a new type of optical path structure of the laser re-injection method is adopted.

For wide dynamic range gas concentration detection based on tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS), direct absorption spectroscopy (DAS) and wavelength modulation spectroscopy (WMS) are usually used in combination. However, in some application scenarios such as high-speed flow field detection, natural gas leakage, or industrial production, the requirements of wide-range, fast response and calibration-free must be met. Taking applicability and cost of TDALS-based sensor into consideration, a method of optimized direct absorption spectroscopy (ODAS) based on signal correlation and spectral reconstruction is developed in this paper.

In this study, a method for double-beam quantum cascade laser absorption spectroscopy (DB-QCLAS) was developed. Two mid-infrared distributed feedback quantum cascade laser beams were coupled in an optical cavity for the monitoring of NO and NO (NO at 5.26 μm; NO at 6.

We report the first application of gas total emission using a DFB diode laser for gas concentration measurements combined with two LEDs for gas velocity measurements. In situ gas total emissions and particle density measurements in an industrial pipeline using simultaneous tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS) and optical scintillation cross-correlation technique (OSCC) are presented. Velocity mean values obtained are 7.
