An intra‐cavity quartz‐enhanced photoacoustic spectroscopy (QEPAS) sensor using fiber‐ring laser is demonstrated. The sensor includes an erbium‐doped fiber (EDF) intra‐cavity laser and a quartz tuning fork (QTF), and realizes wavelength scanning through a piezoelectric transducer (PZT). The acousto‐optic modulator (AOM) is used to modulate laser intensity at a frequency of 32.758 kHz. We use optical switches to detect acetylene (C2H2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) at 1530.37 and 1572.66 nm, respectively, based on the time division multiplexing (TDM) technology. The two‐component gas sensor showed good linearity of 0.9996 and 0.9966, and could achieve a minimum detection limit (MDL) of 180.64 ppbv and 145.45 ppmv for C2H2 and CO2 detection, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
