For sensitive and accurate methane (CH) and ethane (CH) simultaneous detection, a near-infrared dual-gas sensing system based on wavelength modulation spectroscopy (WMS) was developed. A fiber-coupled distributed feedback (DFB) diode laser emitting at 1.684 μm was employed as light source. The scanning and modulation signals applied to the injection current of the laser were designed based on time division multiplexing (TDM) to realize the dual-gas measurement. A White cell with absorption path length of 16 m was utilized. The light intensity signal detected was processed with python based digital quadrature lock-in amplifier to obtain first and second harmonic signals. Allan deviation analysis yielded detection limits of 23.53 ppb for CH and 146.4 ppb for CH in an average time of 100 s.

Sulfur dioxide (SO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO) are chemical indicators of crop straw combustion as well as significant atmospheric pollutants. It is challenging to promptly detect natural "wildfires" during agricultural production, which often lead to uncontrollable and substantial economic losses. Moreover, both "wildfires" and artificial "straw burning" practices pose severe threats to the ecological environment and human health.

In the quantitative analysis of mixed gases by tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy, the overlapping of absorption spectra and mutual interference of multi-component gases can lead to problems of large measurement errors and low analysis accuracy. In this paper, an improved firefly algorithm is proposed and applied to the support vector machine regression model to solve this problem. The specific method includes introducing an adaptive step size to balance the local and global searches and using the gradient descent method to accelerate the parameter optimization process so as to improve the model's generalization ability and prediction accuracy.

A novel double spot-ring plane-concave multipass cell (DSPC-MPC) gas sensor was proposed for simultaneous detection of trace gases, which has lower cost and higher mirror utilization than the traditional multipass cell with 129 m, 107 m, 85 m, 63 m and 40 m effective optical path lengths adjustable. The performance of the DSPC-MPC gas sensor was evaluated by measuring CO and CH4 using two narrow linewidth distributed feedback lasers with center wavelengths of 1567 nm and 1653 nm, respectively. An adjustable digital PID laser frequency stabilization system based on LabVIEW platform was developed to continuously stabilize the laser frequency within ∼±30.

Photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) as a highly sensitive and selective trace gas detection technique has extremely broad application in many fields. However, the laser sources currently used in PAS limit the sensing performance. Compared to diode laser and quantum cascade laser, the solid-state laser has the merits of high optical power, excellent beam quality, and wide tuning range.
