Development of a Near-Infrared Photoacoustic System for Selective, Fast, and Fully Automatized Detection of Isotopically Labeled Ammonia.


ABSTRACT: Different environmental and industrial technologies seek for fast and automatic ammonia detection systems, capable of the selective measurement of the concentration of its isotopes at sub-ppm levels, without any interference with the common contaminants. In this work, we report the quasi-simultaneous measurement of 14NH3 and 15NH3 concentrations based on a near-infrared diode laser-based photoacoustic system. Using a widely tunable external cavity diode laser, four nearby wavelengths within the range of 1531.3-1531.8 nm were optimal circumstances for sensitive detection, while avoiding interference with water vapor. Subsequently, a more robust distributed feedback diode laser was employed to tune the laser wavelength on the sub-second timescale by varying its driving current rather than using much slower temperature tuning. The detection limit of our system is 0.15 and 0.73 ppm for 14NH3 and 15NH3 (with an accuracy below 0.1%), respectively, and the response time is 3.5 s.
