Photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) is an effective trace gas sensor technology which employs a broadband microphone for acoustic wave detection. When the output of a near-infrared semiconductor laser is absorbed by a gas sample, the absorbed energy is transformed to heat energy by non-radiative processes, and will subsequently result in an increase of the local temperature and pressure in the sample. Therefore the absorption of a modulated near-infrared laser beam in a gas sample leads to the generation of an acoustic wave. The intensity of the acoustic wave is related to the sample concentration which can be detected by a sensitive microphone. However, most microphone-based PAS cells have a low resonance frequency (<2 kHz), which makes such cells more sensitive to environmental and sa... view moreĀ»
