Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor lasers, and in particular to a quantum cascade laser automatic calibration and gas concentration inversion device and method. Background Art

[0002] NO2 is an important atmospheric pollutant, a harmful gas released by automobile exhaust, garbage burning, smoking, etc. When the concentration of NO2 in the atmosphere increases, it can have direct or indirect effects on the environment in the following aspects: free radical reactions occur in the stratosphere, destroying stratospheric ozone; nitric acid is generated at the bottom of the stratosphere, entering the clouds to form acidic precipitation; after being transmitted through the atmosphere, it enters the troposphere and increases the concentration of tropospheric ozone through photochemical reactions, making it a greenhouse gas. Therefore, monitoring the sources of NO2 in the atmosphere in order to implement effective control and management is of great significance to the biosphere.

[0003] At present, there are mainly chemical and optical methods for detecting NO2 gas in the atmosphere. The chemical methods mainly include chemiluminescence and electrochemical methods. Since chemical methods usually require sample pretreatment, the process is complicated and time-consuming, and is easily interfered by other substances, and may also cause artificial products, it is particularly unsuitable for real-time continuous measurement, making optical methods an increasingly popular measurement technology. In particular, the use of tunable infrared laser absorption spectroscopy technology to measure NO2 gas in the atmosphere can not only overcome the sampling and pretreatment problems in chemical methods, but also completely avoid interference from other gases, and achieve highly sensitive detection of the gas to be measured in an ultra-short time.

[0004] Frequency calibration is of great significance in the fields of precision measurement, optical communication, laser technology, etc. The current frequency calibration technology is mainly carried out using FP (Fabry-Perot) interferometer. FP interferometer has good frequency discrimination ability and high-precision measurement performance, so it is widely used in many precision measurement fields. However, the existing frequency calibration technology based on FP etalon still has some problems. First, traditional FP etalons usually require precise manufacturing processes and complex debugging processes, resulting in high costs. Secondly, the existing FP etalon is easily affected by factors such as temperature changes and mechanical vibrations after long-term use, resulting in frequency drift and instability. In addition, the FP etalon frequency calibration method in the prior art may require complex data processing and calculations, and there is a certain degree of operational complexity and inconvenience.

In addition, in actual production, the three-dimensional dimensions of length, width and depth should be included.

[0047] Reference Figure 1-Figure 7 , provides a quantum cascade laser automatic calibration and gas concentration inversion device, including:

[0048] A support structure 100 and a calibration inversion structure 200, wherein the support structure 100 comprises a support plate 101, and a plurality of support legs 102 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the support plate 101;

[0049] The calibration inversion structure 200 includes a laser 201 fixedly connected to the upper end of the support plate 101, a reflector 202 is arranged on the support plate 101 in front of the output end of the laser 201, a vertical circular plate 203 is fixedly connected to the center of the upper end of the support plate 101, a stepper motor 204 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the circular plate 203, and a filter wheel 205 is fixedly sleeved on the driving shaft of the stepper motor 204, and a plurality of gas filters are evenly arranged on the side wall of the filter wheel 205. The filter chamber 206 and a Ge etalon 207, the light beam of the laser 201 passes through the Ge etalon 207 or the gas filter chamber 206 on the filter wheel 205 through the reflector 202 and passes out, the upper end of the support plate 101 is fixedly connected with an off-axis parabolic mirror 208 opposite to the reflector 202, and a photodetector 209 is fixedly connected to the support plate 101 on one side of the off-axis parabolic mirror 208, and the light beam is transmitted to the photodetector 209 through the off-axis parabolic mirror 208.

[0050] Among them, multiple gas filter chambers 206 are respectively filled with N2, NO, CO2, NO2, C2H2, and CH4; the laser 201 adopts a quantum cascade laser, and the integrated Ge standard tool 207 and the gas filter chamber 206 are integrated on a filter wheel 205, which is controlled by a stepper motor 204 to realize the automatic calibration of the quantum cascade laser.

[0051] Among them, the quantum cascade laser is connected to an external host computer and synchronized with the host computer acquisition card for data acquisition. The photodetector adopts a high-bandwidth mid-infrared MCT detector, and the photodetector is connected to an external high-speed data acquisition device to record the spectrum in the time domain. Combined with the standard tool, it can obtain information about the spectrum in the frequency domain.

[0052] Furthermore, Figure 3 The variation of the excited light intensity signal with time. The successful recording of QCL light pulses is due to the fast time response of the detector and the high-speed digitization process of the digital acquisition card. The baseline before and after the rising and falling edges of the light pulse is the voltage response of the detector when there is no laser. As can be seen from the figure, after the emission current pulse, the continuous power of the spectrum in the time domain gradually decreases with time and reaches a minimum value at the end. This is because the thermal dissipation of the laser increases the heat sink temperature of the laser, and the laser threshold will also increase with the increase of the heat sink temperature, that is, while the laser is negatively chirped, the required threshold current is also getting higher and higher. Since the laser current is constant, the corresponding light output energy is getting lower and lower.

[0054] Step 1: Control the stepper motor 204 to rotate, place the Ge etalon 207 in the optical path, control the quantum cascade laser to emit light, and synchronize the host computer acquisition card to collect data to obtain a stable Etalon interference peak signal;

[0056] Step 3: Data processing: The time value corresponding to each interference peak is obtained by the interference signal peak finding method. The time point of the interference peak is used as the horizontal coordinate, and the frequency interval between peaks is the free spectrum range (FSR) of the etalon. The above data points are fitted to the third power to obtain the fitting equation.

[0057] Step 4: Turn the gas filter chamber 206 into the optical path, obtain the time value corresponding to the corresponding gas absorption peak, compare it with the theoretical wave number position corresponding to the absorption peak obtained by HITRAN, and make a one-to-one correspondence between the two to know the frequency domain position corresponding to the gas absorption peak;

[0058] Step 5: Change the time axis of the long pulse spectrum signal into the frequency domain axis expressed in wave numbers. Time-frequency conversion: convert the data sequence number into time, and then into wave numbers.

[0059] Furthermore, the fitting equation in step three is:

[0060] y=Intercept+B1*x+B2*x 2 +B3*x 3

[0061] Among them, Intercept is a function, which refers to the distance from the intersection of the function graph and the coordinate axis to the origin;

[0062] B1, B2, B3 are cubic function coefficients; x, y are the positions of the peak and trough respectively.

[0063] Specifically, refer to Figure 4 , the value of B1 is 0.48327±0.00504; the value of B2 is -0.00137±3.0727E-5; the value of B3 is 1.6479E-6±5.92536E-8.

[0064] Among them, the following two formulas are used in step 5:

[0065] t=x÷N

[0066] v=a×t^3+b×t^2+c×t+d

[0067] Among them, x is the data sequence number, N is the detector scanning frequency, t is the time, a, b, c, d are the polynomial coefficients, and v is the wave number.

[0068] Specifically, the specific operation of quantum cascade laser gas concentration inversion in the quantum cascade laser automatic calibration and gas concentration inversion method includes the following steps:

[0069] S1. First, take the baseline area of ​​the transmission spectrum, use a quadratic polynomial to obtain the baseline, convert the transmission spectrum into an absorbance spectrum, and obtain the absorbance spectrum of the substance;

[0070] S2. Perform multiple sets of Voigt line parameter fitting modeling on the absorbance spectra of standard substances to obtain a standard substance spectrum library, in which the intensity and line width will change due to the influence of temperature and pressure, in preparation for subsequent concentration inversion.

[0071] S3. Using the least squares method, by comparing the absorbance data of the standard substance Voigt model, the concentration of the gas substance in the measured data is obtained, thereby realizing gas concentration inversion.

[0072] Among them, the Voigt model is an existing spectrum fitting method and will not be described in detail here.
