The potential of Quantum Cascade Laser technology has been recently harnessed in industry, medicine and military to create a range of original infrared gas sensors. These sensors have opened up many new applications due to compact size, excellent sensitivity, robust construction and low power requirements. They rely on infrared absorption spectroscopy to determine identity and quantity of gases. The...
The paper presents investigations of a free space optical transmitter operating with quantum cascade lasers. The main goal of the research was to determine influence of lasers driver parameters on an optical data link performance. Using some commercial driving devices, the laser pulse limitations of power, repetition rate and time duration have been observed. In the paper, the preliminary results...
The paper presents results of experimental tests of the quantum cascade laser from Alpes Lasers company in terms of its application in the optic communication system in an open space. The measurements involved the current – voltage characteristics while measuring also the average power of emitted radiation, and spectral characteristics for different temperatures and different laser pulse durations...
In the paper, several applications of Cavity Enhanced Absorption Spectroscopy (CEAS) for trace mater detection are described. NO2 sensor was constructed using this technique with blue-violet lasers (395–440 nm). The sensor sensitivity reaches the level of single ppb and it was applied in security portal. For detection of two gases at the same time, two-channel sensor was constructed. Used method allows...
