Application of Supercontinuum Generation to Practical Absorption Spectroscopy
(2005)Supercontinuum light generation was used as a means to generate broadband light for spectroscopic measurements. The generated broadband light was used to measure carbon monoxide (CO) absorption in a sealed laboratory ... -
Development of a Spatially Resolved Optical Technique to Measure Temperature using Two-Photon Absorption of Xenon
(2005)A new spatially resolved optical technique to measure temperature was developed using two-photon absorption of xenon. This experiment excited the 256 nm two-photon transition of xenon by focusing the excitation source ... -
High Spectral Resolution Emission Thermometry for Combustion Applications
(2005)Several spectroscopic emission methods were investigated for the determination of combustion gas temperature. Spectroscopic simulations based on the HITRAN database were performed to aid in sensor design and data ... -
Wavelength-Agile Rayleigh Scattering by use of an Atomic Vapor Cell
(2005)A wavelength-agile technique using an atomic vapor cell is developed and applied to the measurement of Rayleigh scattering. The atomic vapor cell displays a steep change in refractive index as a function of wavelength, ...
