Isotopic ratio measurement of methane in ambient air using mid-infrared cavity leak-out spectroscopy

We report on infrared laser spectroscopic measurements of the isotopic composition of methane (CH4, CH4) in natural air samples with a cavity ring-down technique. A CO overtone sideband laser is utilized to excite a high-finesse cavity which provides an effective optical absorption path length of 3....

description We report on infrared laser spectroscopic measurements of the isotopic composition of methane (CH4, CH4) in natural air samples with a cavity ring-down technique. A CO overtone sideband laser is utilized to excite a high-finesse cavity which provides an effective optical absorption path length of 3.6 km. We achieved a detection limit of 105 ppt methane in ambient air using an integration time of 20 s. This corresponds to a minimum detectable absorption of 1.9X10 /cm. Rapid determination of the C/Cisotopic ratio of methane in ambient air without sample preconcentration or gas processing is realized. The present system requires only few minutes for an isotopic ratio measurement with a precision of 11%o .
