    摘要: An illustrative cavity ring down gas sensor includes an optical cavity for receiving a gas to be detected and at least two electromagnetic radiation sources. The first electromagnetic radiation source may emit a first beam of light having a wavelength corresponding to an absorption wavelength of the gas to be detected, and the second electromagnetic radiation source may emit a second beam of light having a second wavelength that is off of an absorption wavelength of the gas to be detected. The first beam of light may detect a cavity ring down time decay, which is related to the concentration of the gas to be detected. The second beam of light may be used to detect a baseline cavity ring down time decay, which may be used to help increase the accuracy of the sensor by, for example, helping to compensate the concentration of the gas detected by the first beam of light for sensor variations caused by, for example, sensor age, temperature or pressure changes, and/or other conditions.

    摘要: A cavity ring down gas sensor may include a radiation source emits an input beam of light having a wavelength corresponding to an absorption line of a gas to be detected. The input beam of light is coupled into an optical cavity to amplify an internal beam of light that is reflected about the optical cavity. An optical element is disposed in the optical cavity at an angle close to, but not at, the Brewster's angle to reflect a relatively small portion of the internal beam of light to a detector. When a specified light intensity is reached in the optical cavity, the input beam of light may be prevented from entering the optical cavity, and a cavity ring down time decay may be measured. The cavity ring down time decay may be related to the gas concentration of a gas to be detected in the optical cavity.

    摘要: A cavity ring down gas sensor is disclosed. In one illustrative embodiment, the cavity ring down gas sensor includes an electromagnetic radiation source (e.g. laser) configured to emit an input beam of light having a wavelength corresponding to an absorption line of a gas to be detected. The input beam of light may be coupled into an optical cavity to amplify an internal beam of light that is reflected about the optical cavity. An optical element may be disposed in the optical cavity at an angled close to, but not at, the Brewster's angle to reflect a relatively small portion of the internal beam of light in the optical cavity to a detector for determining the intensity of the internal beam of light in the optical cavity. When a specified light intensity is reached in the optical cavity, the input beam of light may be shut off or otherwise prevented from entering the optical cavity, and a cavity ring down time decay may be measured. The cavity ring down time decay may be related to the gas concentration of a gas to be detected in the optical cavity.
