[0024]1. In a gas cell device for Raman spectroscopy detection without quartz Raman signal, the present invention includes a first gas cell, a capillary, and a second gas cell. The first gas cell includes a laser incident channel, a dichroic mirror, and a laser reflection channel. The laser incident channel includes a first window. The second gas cell includes a second channel, a second window, and a second outlet hole. In application, the laser moves along the laser incident channel through the first window, is reflected by the dichroic mirror to the laser reflection channel, and then enters the capillary to react with the gas to be measured to generate a Raman signal. The laser then enters the second channel and exits through the second window. The Raman signal is reflected by the second window, passes through the capillary, and exits through the dichroic mirror. The present invention uses the first window... The first window is positioned at the front of the laser incident channel. Since the quartz Raman signal generated by the first window passes through the dichroic mirror, it has no effect. In the second gas chamber, although a quartz Raman signal is generated when the laser irradiates the second window, it is not captured by the capillary due to the large distance between the second window and the capillary, and therefore is not received by the spectrometer. Furthermore, if the tilt angle of the second window is greater than 5 degrees, the laser will not re-irradiate the inner wall of the capillary, thus preventing the generation of a quartz Raman signal. This invention eliminates the influence of the quartz Raman signal from three aspects, preventing the appearance of quartz peaks in the Raman spectrum. Therefore, it allows for more accurate Raman spectrum comparison, thereby improving the accuracy of gas detection. Thus, this invention is not affected by the quartz Raman signal when detecting gases and achieves high detection accuracy.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0024] 1. In a gas cell device for Raman spectroscopy detection without quartz Raman signal, the present invention includes a first gas cell, a capillary, and a second gas cell. The first gas cell includes a laser incident channel, a dichroic mirror, and a laser reflection channel. The laser incident channel includes a first window. The second gas cell includes a second channel, a second window, and a second outlet hole. In application, the laser moves along the laser incident channel through the first window, is reflected by the dichroic mirror to the laser reflection channel, and then enters the capillary to react with the gas to be measured to generate a Raman signal. The laser then enters the second channel and exits through the second window. The Raman signal is reflected by the second window, passes through the capillary, and exits through the dichroic mirror. The present invention uses the first window... The first window is positioned at the front of the laser incident channel. Since the quartz Raman signal generated by the first window passes through the dichroic mirror, it has no effect. In the second gas chamber, although a quartz Raman signal is generated when the laser irradiates the second window, it is not captured by the capillary due to the large distance between the second window and the capillary, and therefore is not received by the spectrometer. Furthermore, if the tilt angle of the second window is greater than 5 degrees, the laser will not re-irradiate the inner wall of the capillary, thus preventing the generation of a quartz Raman signal. This invention eliminates the influence of the quartz Raman signal from three aspects, preventing the appearance of quartz peaks in the Raman spectrum. Therefore, it allows for more accurate Raman spectrum comparison, thereby improving the accuracy of gas detection. Thus, this invention is not affected by the quartz Raman signal when detecting gases and achieves high detection accuracy.

During application, the capillary seals prevent air leakage at the connection between the capillary and the first and second gas cells, and also prevent the introduction of external gases. Therefore, the device has good sealing performance and high detection accuracy. Thus, the present invention has good sealing performance.

In the gas chamber device for Raman spectroscopy detection without quartz Raman signals of the present invention, the diameters of the laser incident channel, the exit end, and the reflection end increase sequentially, as do the diameters of the second inlet end, the second connecting end, the second reflection end, and the second large end. In application, the sequential increase in the diameters of the exit end and the reflection end is to avoid blocking the Raman signal with its gradually increasing diameter, and the sequential increase in the diameters of the second inlet end, the second connecting end, the second reflection end, and the second large end is to avoid blocking the laser with its gradually increasing diameter. Simultaneously, the designed tube diameter reduces the weight of the invention and also helps save installation space, enabling the invention to be used in environments with limited space, such as mobile detection equipment or embedded systems. Therefore, the present invention provides convenience for gas analysis in confined spaces.

[0061] The following are supplementary descriptions of the present invention:
[0062] The Raman spectroscopy technology described in this invention refers to a technique for gas detection that measures the interaction of a gas with light of a specific wavelength. Each gas has unique spectral characteristics, making Raman spectroscopy a powerful tool. Raman spectroscopy can be used to detect single gases or multi-component gases, and through Raman spectral analysis, we can obtain crucial information about gas composition, concentration, and temperature. In Raman spectroscopy detection, a laser reacts with the analyte gas within a gas chamber. The design and manufacture of the gas chamber typically consider various factors, including optical path length and optical window material. The function of the gas chamber is to enable effective interaction between the analyte gas and the light, making spectral detection more sensitive and suitable for high-precision gas analysis applications such as combustion process monitoring, gas quality analysis, and environmental gas monitoring. Therefore, the design of the gas chamber is crucial.
[0063] The conventional air chamber described in this invention refers to: Please refer to Figure 12 — Figure 13 , Figure 12This is a schematic diagram of a traditional gas chamber application. The laser is first generated by a laser emitter, then focused by a 200mm focusing lens 92. After passing through a filter 93 to remove stray light, the laser is reflected by a mirror 94 and then reflected again by a traditional dichroic mirror 95. The laser then passes through the traditional first window 9, generating a first quartz Raman signal 103. This first Raman signal 103 is received by a 75mm focal length lens 96 located at the signal focal point and subsequently received by a spectrometer. The gas to be measured enters the traditional capillary 101 through a gas inlet 99. The laser and the gas react within the capillary 101, generating a Raman signal 102. The gas then exits the capillary 101 through a gas outlet 100. The laser and Raman signal 102 continue to the traditional second window 91, and then the laser exits the traditional second window 95. The laser beam exits through a second window 91. As it passes through the conventional second window 91, a second quartz Raman signal 103 is generated, which is captured by a conventional capillary tube 101. The Raman signal 102 and the second quartz Raman signal 103 return from the conventional capillary tube 101. After passing through a conventional dichroic mirror 95, they are parallelized by a 75mm focal length lens 96. The Raman signal 102, the first quartz Raman signal 103, and the second quartz Raman signal 103 are then filtered by a cutoff plate 97 to remove scattered light. After being focused by a 30mm focal length lens 98, they are collected by an optical fiber and enter a spectrometer for analysis. Finally, a Raman spectrum is created in a CCD camera. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 13 The figure shows the Raman spectrum of a traditional gas cell. It can be seen that there is a relatively obvious quartz peak within the black box. This quartz peak overlaps with part of the Raman signal 102, interfering with the display of the Raman signal 102 and affecting the accuracy of gas cell detection.

The interior of the incident plane 11, the exit plane 12, and the reflecting slope 13 forms a first chamber 14, which includes a laser incident channel 4 and a dichroic mirror. 5. Laser reflection channel 6; The laser incident channel 4 includes an inlet end 41, a connecting end 42, and an air inlet pipe 43. The inlet end 41 is located on the incident plane 11 and is provided with a first window 44. The air inlet pipe 43 is located in the middle of the laser incident channel 4, and one end of the air inlet pipe 43 is vertically connected to the top of the first gas chamber 1. The end of the laser incident channel 4 away from the inlet end 41 is the connecting end 42, which is connected to the middle of one end of the laser reflection channel 6. The laser reflection channel 6 includes a reflecting end 61 and an exit end 62. The reflecting end 61 is connected to one end of the dichroic mirror 5, and the dichroic mirror 5 is located at the reflecting oblique angle. In the middle of surface 13, the middle of the reflecting end 61 is connected to the connecting end 42; the emitting end 62 is located at the end of the laser reflecting channel 6 away from the reflecting end 61, and the emitting end 62 passes through the emitting straight surface 12 to reach the outside of the emitting straight surface 12; the emitting end 62 is connected to one end of the capillary tube 2, the capillary tube 2 is a hollow tube, and the other end of the capillary tube 2 is the left end face 21, which is connected to the second gas chamber 3; the second gas chamber 3 includes a second channel 31, a second window 32 and a second outlet hole 35, the second channel 31 includes a second inlet end 311 and a second reflecting end 312, the second inlet end 311 is connected to the left end face 21, and the second emitting end 62 is connected to the connecting end 42. The second reflector 312 is located on the end of the second channel 31 away from the second inlet end 311. The second reflector 312 is connected to one end of the second window 32. The distance between the second window 32 and the left end face 21 is greater than 10 cm.

The other end of the second window 32 is connected to the second outlet hole 35. The second outlet hole 35 is located on the end of the second air chamber 3 away from the second channel 31. An air outlet channel 36 is also provided in the middle of the second channel 31. One end of the air outlet channel 36 is connected to the outer surface of the second air chamber 3.
[0066] In application, the incident laser 8 is generated by a laser emitter. The incident laser 8 is first focused by a 200mm focal length lens, then filtered by a filter 93 to remove stray light. After the incident laser 8 passes through a reflector 94 to change direction, it enters the first window 44. The first window 44 ensures the airtightness of the first gas chamber 1, but the reaction between the incident laser 8 and the first window 44 generates a quartz Raman signal 103. The incident laser 8 then enters the inlet end 41 and moves towards the connection end 42. Then, the incident laser 8 enters the reflection end 61 and is reflected by the dichroic mirror 5 towards the outlet end 62. The dichroic mirror 5 itself does not generate a quartz Raman signal 103. Because the wavelength of the quartz Raman signal 103 is relatively long, the dichroic mirror 5 will reflect the light from the first window 44. The generated quartz Raman signal 103 is emitted, therefore it will not be received by the spectrometer. Then, the incident laser 8 moves from the exit end 62 towards the capillary 2. Simultaneously, the gas to be measured enters the laser incident channel 4 through the inlet pipe 43 and then enters the capillary 2. The gas to be measured reacts with the incident laser 8 within the capillary 2 to generate a Raman signal 102. The incident laser 8 and the Raman signal 102 continue to move forward, passing the left end face 21 and entering the second inlet end 311. Then, the incident laser 8 and the Raman signal 102 move towards the second reflection end 312. The incident laser 8 passes through the second window plate 32 and exits. The incident laser 8 reacts with the second window plate 32 to generate a quartz Raman signal 103. Because the second window plate 32 and the left... Because the distance between end face 21 and the target end is greater than 10 cm, the angle at which the left end face 21 receives the quartz Raman signal 103 is reduced. Therefore, the quartz Raman signal 103 will not be captured by the left end face 21, while the Raman signal 102 will be reflected back into the capillary tube 2 by the second window plate 32. Then, the Raman signal 102 passes through the output end 62 and the reflection end 61 in sequence and exits through the dichroic mirror 5. The Raman signal 102 then passes through the 75mm focal length lens 96 and is focused into a parallel state. Then, the Raman signal 102 passes through the cutoff plate 97 and the scattered excitation light is removed by the cutoff plate 97. The Raman signal 102 is then focused by the 30mm focal length lens 98 and collected into the optical fiber. Finally, the Raman signal 102 moves through the optical fiber into the spectrometer. After analysis by the spectrometer, the Raman signal 102 creates a Raman spectrum in the CCD camera. The tilt angle 34 of the second window 32 is greater than 5 degrees, which prevents the incident laser 8 from being reflected by the second window 32 and directly irradiating the inner wall of the capillary 2. When the incident laser 8 irradiates the inner wall of the capillary 2, a quartz Raman signal 103 will be generated, which will cause interference to the detection. The first window 44 makes the first gas chamber 1 more airtight, and the second window 32 makes the second gas chamber 3 more airtight. Both the first window 44 and the second window 32 prevent the incident laser 8 from directly irradiating the metal material inside the device. If the incident laser 8 irradiates the metal material, it will trigger Raman fluorescence, which will reduce the detection accuracy.The dichroic mirror 5 is tilted at an angle of 45 degrees to ensure that the incident laser 8 has an angle of 90 degrees after both incident and refraction, so that the incident laser 8 can pass through the center of the capillary 2 without hitting the wall of the capillary 2; Figure 15 and Figure 13 By comparison, it can be seen that Figure 15 There are no quartz peaks, and the Raman signal 102 is more clearly displayed.
[0067] Example 2:
[0068] The basic content is the same as in Example 1, except that:
[0069] Please see Figure 1 — Figure 11 The outer end of the ejector 62 is fitted with a rubber tube 63, and the outer end of the rubber tube 63 is fitted with a clamp 64. A capillary seal 7 is fitted on the end of the capillary tube 2 connected to the ejector 62. The capillary seal 7 includes a capillary pressure member 71 and a spherical washer 72. The spherical washer 72 is fitted on the outside of the end of the capillary tube 2 connected to the ejector 62. The capillary pressure member 71 includes a threaded end 711 and a hollow part 712. The hollow part 712 is fitted on the outside of the end of the capillary tube 2 connected to the ejector 62. The threaded end 711 is located on the end of the capillary pressure member 71 near the connecting end 42. The threaded end 711 and the spherical washer 72 are inserted into the inside of one end of the rubber tube 63. The threaded end 711 is connected to one end of the spherical washer 72. A capillary seal 7 is fitted over the left end face 21. The capillary seal 7 includes a capillary pressure member 71 and a spherical washer 72. The spherical washer 72 is fitted over the left end face 21. The capillary pressure member 71 includes a threaded end 711 and a hollow portion 712. The hollow portion 712 is fitted over the left end face 21. The threaded end 711 is located on the end of the capillary pressure member 71 near the second inlet end 311. The threaded end 711 and the spherical washer 72 are inserted into the interior of the second air chamber 3 near the second inlet end 311. The threaded end 711 is connected to one end of the spherical washer 72. A dichroic mirror 5 is fitted over the outside of a dichroic spherical washer 51. The dichroic spherical washer 51 has an external thread 52 on its outside. The external thread 52 is connected to the middle of the reflecting slope 13.
[0070] In application, the rubber tube 63 and clamp 64 are fitted over the outside of the ejector end 62, thus ensuring the airtightness of the ejector end 62. The capillary tube 2, at the end furthest from the left end face 21, is fitted with the hollow portion 712 of the capillary tube clamp 71. A spherical washer 72 is placed on the front side of the threaded end 711 near the connecting end 42. When the threaded end 711 is tightened into the connecting end 42, the threaded end 711 compresses the spherical washer 72, which in turn compresses the capillary tube 2, thus achieving a sealing effect. A hollow portion 712 is also fitted over the outside of the left end face 21. At this time, the threaded end 711 and the spherical washer 72 are inserted into the second inlet end 311. When the threaded end 711 is tightened into the second inlet end 311, the threaded end 711 squeezes the spherical washer 72, and the spherical washer 72 squeezes the capillary tube 2, thus achieving a sealing effect. The dichroic mirror 5 is fitted with a dichroic spherical washer 51. The dichroic spherical washer 51 is connected to the middle part of the reflecting slope 13 through the external thread 52 of the washer. The external thread 52 of the washer stabilizes the position of the dichroic mirror 5, and the dichroic spherical washer 51 ensures the airtightness of the connection of the dichroic mirror 5.
[0071] Example 3:
[0072] The basic content is the same as in Example 1, except that:
[0073] Please see Figure 1 — Figure 9 The diameter of the reflecting end 61 is larger than the diameter of the emitting end 62, and the diameter of the emitting end 62 is larger than the diameter of the laser incident channel 4. The second entrance end 311 is connected to one end of the second connecting end 313, the other end of the second connecting end 313 is connected to one end of the second large end 314, and the other end of the second large end 314 is connected to one end of the second reflecting end 312. The diameter of the second large end 314 is larger than the diameter of the second reflecting end 312, the diameter of the second reflecting end 312 is larger than the diameter of the second connecting end 313, and the diameter of the second connecting end 313 is larger than the diameter of the second entrance end 311. The diameter of the reflecting end 61 is 12 mm, the diameter of the emitting end 62 is 10 mm, and the diameter of the laser incident channel 4 is 8 mm.
[0074] In application, after the Raman signal 102 returns through the capillary 2, it first passes through the output end 62 and then the reflection end 61. Because the diameter of the Raman signal 102 increases with the moving distance, the diameter of the output end 62 is larger than that of the reflection end 61 to prevent the Raman signal 102 from hitting the sidewalls of the output end 62 and the reflection end 61. After the incident laser 8 reaches the second entrance end 311, it sequentially passes through the second connecting end 313, the second large end 314, and the second reflection end 312. Again, because the diameter of the incident laser 8 increases with the moving distance, the diameter of the output end 62 is larger than that of the reflection end 61 to prevent the Raman signal 102 from hitting the sidewalls of the output end 62 and the reflection end 61. The diameters of the second inlet end 311, the second connecting end 313, the second reflecting end 312, and the second large end 314 are all different on the inner wall of the second gas chamber 3. If the incident laser 8 hits the inner wall of the second gas chamber 3, it will cause a more severe Raman fluorescence effect, which will reduce the detection accuracy. The different diameters of the second inlet end 311, the second connecting end 313, the second reflecting end 312, and the second large end 314 help to reduce the overall volume of the second gas chamber 3. The different diameters of the reflecting end 61, the exit end 62, and the laser incident channel 4 help to reduce the overall volume of the first gas chamber 1, which facilitates the installation of this device.
[0075] Example 4:
[0076] The basic content is the same as in Example 1, except that:
[0077] Please see Figure 1 — Figure 8 The incident surface 11 has four evenly distributed connecting holes 15 around its perimeter, and the exit surface 12 also has four evenly distributed connecting holes 15 around its perimeter. A cage-type connector 37, which is a hollow cylinder, is vertically connected to the outside of the second outlet hole 35. The inner surface of the air inlet pipe 43 and the inner surface of the air outlet channel 36 both have evenly distributed threaded structures.
[0078] In application, the connecting hole 15 is compatible with the 30 mm cage structure, so the first air chamber 1 can be fixed on the 30 mm cage structure; the cage connector 37 is also compatible with the 30 mm cage structure, so the second air chamber 3 can be fixed on the 30 mm cage structure; the inner surfaces of the air inlet pipe 43 and the air outlet channel 36 are evenly distributed with threaded structures, which can be connected to threaded pagoda mouth or double ferrule fittings, and then connected to the pipe of the gas to be tested through the pagoda mouth or double ferrule fittings to achieve the effect of air inlet and air outlet.
