Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of gas detection technology, and in particular, relates to a gas detection system and method. Background Art
[0002] Raman spectroscopy is a scattering spectrum that characterizes the molecular structure of a substance. When the laser hits the sample, it will stimulate the Raman scattering signal of the sample molecules. Then, through components such as lenses or optical fibers, the light signal is collected into a spectrometer to analyze the Raman spectrum.

[0028] Gas Raman technology is commonly used in laboratory gas analysis and online gas detection in industries such as petrochemicals, fluorine chemicals, metallurgy and semiconductors. Since the gas Raman scattering spectrum signal is very weak, it is very important to improve the collection efficiency of the gas Raman signal.
[0029] Raman spectroscopy is a scattering spectrum that characterizes the molecular structure of a substance. When the laser hits the sample, it will stimulate the Raman scattering signal of the sample molecules. Then, through components such as lenses or optical fibers, the light signal is collected into a spectrometer to analyze the Raman spectrum. Since the Raman scattering spectra of different gas molecules are different, the type and concentration of the gas can be qualitatively or quantitatively analyzed based on the Raman spectrum.
[0030] Raman light is a kind of scattered light, and the intensity of scattered light is positively correlated with the concentration of material molecules. Conventional Raman detection is mostly used for solids and liquids. However, since the density of gas is 1000 times lower than that of liquid, and the gas in industrial detection is generally a multi-component mixed gas, the concentration and content of the target gas may be 100 to 10,000 times lower, so the gas Raman signal is very weak, which limits the application of Raman spectroscopy in many gas detection industries.
[0031] In order to improve the Raman signal of gas, the present application provides a gas Raman detection system and method to improve the collection efficiency of gas Raman scattered light. The following first introduces the gas Raman detection system provided in the embodiment of the present application.
[0032] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of a gas detection system provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the gas detection system 100 may include: a sample pool 110 , a laser transmitter 120 , at least one focusing structure 130 , an optical fiber 140 and a spectral imaging subsystem 150 .
[0033] The sample pool 110 is used to store the target gas. A first group of light-transmitting windows and at least one second group of light-transmitting windows are arranged on the pool wall of the sample pool 110. The first group of light-transmitting windows includes two opposite light-transmitting windows a and b, and the second group of light-transmitting windows includes an opposite first light-transmitting window c and a second light-transmitting window d.
[0034] In some embodiments, the sample pool 110 is a closed polyhedron, and the sample pool 110 includes multiple groups of pool walls, each group of pool walls includes two opposite pool walls, and the first group of light-transmitting windows a and b and the second group of light-transmitting windows including c and e are located on different groups of pool walls. The target gas may include gases such as nitrogen and methane.
[0035] For example, Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 It is a structural schematic diagram of a sample pool provided in an embodiment of the present application. The sample pool is in a cube shape and includes three groups of pool walls. Each group of pool walls includes two opposite pool walls. Each pool wall is provided with a light-transmitting window, and the two opposite light-transmitting windows form a group of light-transmitting windows. Laser light can be incident from one group of light-transmitting windows (the first group of light-transmitting windows) to excite the target gas in the sample pool to produce Raman scattered light. The sample pool body can be made of stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant alloy materials, and the light-transmitting window can be made of glass. The glass can be an optical grade adaptable or sapphire lens with high light transmittance and hardness. Inlet and outlet pipes can also be set on the sample pool to connect with the sample gas pipe.
[0036] Continue to see Figure 1 The laser emitter 120 is used to emit laser L to the target gas in the sample cell 110 through a in the first group of light-transmitting windows, so that the target gas generates Raman scattered light.
[0037] At least one focusing structure 130, the focusing structure 130 includes a reflector 131 and a convex lens 132, the reflector 131 is located outside the first light-transmitting window c, and the reflecting surface of the reflector 131 faces the first light-transmitting window c, the convex lens 132 is located outside the second light-transmitting window d, and the convex lens 132 is located on the optical path of the Raman scattered light reflected by the reflector 131, and the convex lens 132 is used to focus the Raman scattered light scattered by the target gas toward the second light-transmitting window and the Raman scattered light reflected by the reflector 131 at a focusing point e.
[0038] In some embodiments, the reflector 131 includes a concave reflector, and the concave reflector is used to collect and reflect the Raman scattered light.
[0039] When the laser L is irradiated on the target gas, the target gas generates Raman scattered light. The Raman scattering signal at the laser focus is the strongest. With the laser focus as the center of the sphere, the scattering direction of the Raman scattered light is distributed over the entire solid angle range. When the Raman scattered light is scattered toward the first light-transmitting window c, it will be reflected back by the reflector 131 outside the first light-transmitting window. At the same time, the Raman scattered light will also be scattered toward the second light-transmitting window d. Since the first light-transmitting window c is opposite to the second light-transmitting window d, the Raman scattered light reflected by the reflector 131 will be combined with the Raman scattered light originally scattered toward the second light-transmitting window, and pass through the second light-transmitting window d together to reach the convex lens 132. In this way, the Raman scattered light reaching the convex lens 132 is changed from one path to two paths, and then converged to the focal point through the convex lens 132, so that the Raman scattered light at the focal point is twice the original, thereby improving the collection efficiency of the Raman scattered light.
[0040] The optical fiber 140 has a first end located at the focusing point e, and the optical fiber 140 is used to receive and transmit Raman scattered light.
[0041] The optical fiber 140 may have various structures, see Figure 4 Partial detailed explanation.
[0042] The spectral imaging subsystem 150 is connected to the second end of the optical fiber 140 . The spectral imaging subsystem 150 is used to generate a Raman spectrum based on the received Raman scattered light. The Raman spectrum is used to detect the target parameters of the target gas.
[0043] In some embodiments, the spectral imaging subsystem 150 may include: a spectroscopic module and a detector.
[0044] The light splitting module is connected to the second end of the optical fiber, and is used for receiving the Raman scattered light transmitted by the optical fiber and splitting the Raman scattered light to obtain a plurality of optical signals.
[0045] The detector is connected to the spectroscopic module, and the detector is used to generate a Raman spectrum according to a plurality of optical signals.
[0046] In some embodiments, the spectral imaging subsystem includes a transmission spectrometer, the spectroscopic module includes a transmission grating, and / or the detector includes a planar array detector. The transmission spectrometer has the following characteristics: the inlet is a linearly arranged multi-core optical fiber, which can adapt to the structure of the optical fiber 140; the transmission spectrometer uses a high numerical aperture value (NA) and a high transmittance transmission optical path inside, which can completely transmit the signal of the optical fiber to the detector. The detector includes a planar array detector, which has a certain longitudinal height, and the longitudinal pixels are generally 64 / 128 / 256. The photosensitivity height is usually 3mm or higher to fully receive the signals of multiple optical fibers.
[0047] The gas detection system of the embodiment of the present application is provided with a first group of light-transmitting windows and at least one second group of light-transmitting windows on the wall of the sample pool, wherein the first group of light-transmitting windows includes two opposite light-transmitting windows, and the second group of light-transmitting windows includes a first light-transmitting window and a second light-transmitting window opposite to each other, so that the laser emitter can irradiate the target gas in the sample pool through the first group of light-transmitting windows, thereby causing the target gas to generate Raman scattered light. Because the gas detection system includes at least one light-focusing structure, and the light-focusing structure includes a reflector and a convex lens, the reflector is located outside the first light-transmitting window, and the convex lens is located outside the second light-transmitting window, since the first light-transmitting window is opposite to the second light-transmitting window, and the convex lens is located on the optical path of the Raman scattered light reflected by the reflector, the convex lens can focus the Raman scattered light scattered by the target gas to the second light-transmitting window and the Raman scattered light reflected by the reflector at a focal point, so that the Raman scattered light at the focal point includes the Raman scattered light emitted to the first light-transmitting window and the Raman scattered light emitted to the second light-transmitting window, a total of two Raman scattered lights, thereby improving the gas Raman scattered light collection efficiency of the gas detection system. The gas detection system also includes an optical fiber, which receives and transmits Raman scattered light at a focus point through the optical fiber, and receives the Raman scattered light transmitted by the optical fiber through a spectral imaging subsystem to generate a Raman spectrum, thereby realizing the analysis of the Raman scattered light of the target gas using the Raman spectrum.
[0048] In some embodiments, the sample pool includes at least two second groups of light-transmitting windows, and the at least two second groups of light-transmitting windows are located on different groups of pool walls, such as Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 It is another structural schematic diagram of the sample pool provided in an embodiment of the present application, which is a top-down cross-sectional view when the sample pool is a cube, and the center is the laser L incident from top to bottom. The gas detection system includes at least two focusing structures, 130 and 130', respectively. The at least two focusing structures correspond one-to-one to at least two second groups of light-transmitting windows. The at least two focusing structures are used to focus the Raman scattered light passing through the at least two second groups of light-transmitting windows on different focal points, namely, focal point 1 and focal point 2; the optical fiber includes at least two first ends, and the at least two first ends of the optical fiber are located at different focal points, that is, the two first ends of the optical fiber are located at focal point 1 and focal point 2, respectively; the optical fiber is used to transmit the Raman scattered light received from the at least two focusing points to the spectral imaging subsystem.
[0049] Figure 3The example shows a case where the sample pool is in a cube shape and Raman scattered light is collected in two ways and four directions. In this case, the collected Raman scattered light is four times that collected in one direction. In other embodiments, the sample pool may be in a three-dimensional shape with six sides. In this case, there may be three focusing structures, each of which focuses the Raman scattered light transmitted through the light-transmitting window at three different focusing points. The three first ends of the optical fiber are respectively placed at the three focusing points, so that the optical fiber can transmit the Raman scattered light to the spectroscopic module. In this case, the sample pool can be collected in three ways and six directions, and the collected Raman scattered light is six times that collected in one direction.
[0050] By improving the collection efficiency of gas Raman scattered light, the sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio of the spectral signal can be improved, thereby improving the device's ability to detect low-concentration gases.
[0051] Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of the structure of an optical fiber provided in an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 4 As shown, the optical fiber includes a first all-in-one optical fiber bundle, the first all-in-one optical fiber bundle includes at least two first ends and one second end, and the at least two first ends of the first all-in-one optical fiber bundle are located at different focusing points. Figure 4 The end face enlarged view of the first end and the end face enlarged view of the second end of the first all-in-one optical fiber bundle are shown. The second end of the first all-in-one optical fiber bundle includes a multi-core optical fiber, and the multi-core optical fiber is arranged linearly. The second end of the first all-in-one optical fiber bundle is connected to the spectral imaging subsystem. Therefore, in some embodiments, the spectral imaging subsystem needs to use a transmission spectrometer because the inlet of the transmission spectrometer is a linearly arranged multi-core optical fiber.
[0052] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 Come and see, Figure 3 In the embodiment, there are two focusing points, namely focusing point 1 and focusing point 2. Figure 4 The first multi-in-one optical fiber bundle has multiple first ends. When it is a two-in-one optical fiber bundle, the optical fiber can use a 2*50 optical fiber. The two first ends of the two-in-one optical fiber bundle are respectively placed at focusing point 1 and focusing point 2 to collect two Raman scattered lights and finally gather them together. This is equivalent to collecting four paths of gas Raman scattered light, which greatly improves the collection efficiency of gas Raman scattered light.
[0053] In other embodiments, the optical fiber includes a preset number of first all-in-one optical fiber bundles and a second all-in-one optical fiber bundle, the first all-in-one optical fiber bundle includes at least two first ends and a second end, the at least two first ends of the first all-in-one optical fiber bundle are located at different focal points, the second all-in-one optical fiber bundle includes a preset number of first ends and a second end, the first ends of the second all-in-one optical fiber bundle are respectively connected to the second ends of the preset number of first all-in-one optical fiber bundles, the second end of the second all-in-one optical fiber bundle includes multi-core optical fibers, the multi-core optical fibers are linearly arranged, and the second end of the second all-in-one optical fiber bundle is connected to the spectral imaging subsystem. That is, multiple all-in-one optical fiber bundles can be combined together through a new all-in-one optical fiber bundle.
[0054] Exemplarily, when the sample pool is irradiated with laser and focused by the focusing structure, there are eight focusing points. A four-in-one fiber optic bundle can be used for each of the four focusing points. The first ends of the four-in-one fiber optic bundles are respectively located at different focusing points. A total of two four-in-one fiber optic bundles are used. The two four-in-one fiber optic bundles can be connected by a two-in-one fiber optic bundle. The two-in-one fiber optic bundle has two first ends, which are respectively connected to the second ends of the two four-in-one fiber optic bundles. The two-in-one fiber optic bundle will eventually transmit the collected Raman scattered light from the eight focusing points to the spectrometer module.
[0055] In some embodiments, the light focusing structure 130 may further include: a collimator 133, such as Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 This is another structural schematic diagram of the gas detection system provided in an embodiment of the present application. The collimator 133 is located on the optical path of the Raman scattered light reflected by the reflector 131 and is located between the second light-transmitting window d and the convex lens 132 .
[0056] The purpose of the collimator is to make the Raman scattered light emitted from the sample cell 110 straight, which is more conducive to the focusing of the convex lens.
[0057] Figure 6 is another structural schematic diagram of the gas detection system provided in the embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 6As shown, the sample pool is in the shape of a cube, and the laser L is incident into the sample pool from top to bottom. After the target gas in the sample pool is irradiated by the laser, it generates scattered Raman scattered light. The focusing structure 130 includes a reflector 131, a collimator 133 and a convex lens 132. Under the action of the focusing structure 130, the two Raman scattered lights are focused on the focal point 1. The focusing structure 130' includes a reflector 131', a collimator 133' and a convex lens 132'. Under the action of the focusing structure 130', the two Raman scattered lights are focused on the focal point 2. Then, through the optical fiber, the optical fiber includes a two-in-one optical fiber bundle, and the two first ends of the two-in-one optical fiber bundle are respectively located at the focal point 1 and the focal point 2, and the Raman scattered light is transmitted to the second end of the two-in-one optical fiber bundle, and the second end of the two-in-one optical fiber bundle is a linearly arranged multi-core optical fiber. The four Raman scattered lights are gathered together by the two-in-one optical fiber bundle, and the collection efficiency of the Raman scattered light is increased by four times, and then injected into the spectral imaging subsystem 150. The spectral imaging subsystem 150 may include a spectroscopic module and an array detector. The four-path Raman scattered light generates a Raman spectrum in the spectral imaging subsystem. The Raman spectrum is used to detect target parameters of the target gas, such as the type and concentration of the gas.
[0058] Based on the same technical concept as the gas detection system provided in the above embodiment, the present application also provides a gas detection method. Please see the following embodiment.
[0059] Figure 7 is a flow chart of a gas detection method provided in an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 7 As shown, the gas detection method 700 may include: S701 to S703.
[0060] S701, controlling the laser emitter to emit laser to the target gas in the sample cell through the first group of light-transmitting windows, so that the target gas generates Raman scattered light.
[0061] S702, receiving Raman scattered light at the focus point through the optical fiber.
[0062] S703 . Generate a Raman spectrum based on the received Raman scattered light, where the Raman spectrum is used to detect target parameters of the target gas.
[0063] The gas detection method of the embodiment of the present application controls the laser emitter to irradiate the target gas in the sample pool through the first group of light-transmitting windows, so that the target gas generates Raman scattered light. Because the gas detection system used in the gas detection method includes at least one light-focusing structure, and the light-focusing structure includes a reflector and a convex lens, the reflector is located outside the first light-transmitting window, and the convex lens is located outside the second light-transmitting window. Since the first light-transmitting window is opposite to the second light-transmitting window, and the convex lens is located on the optical path of the Raman scattered light reflected by the reflector, the convex lens can focus the Raman scattered light scattered by the target gas to the second light-transmitting window and the Raman scattered light reflected by the reflector at the focal point, so that the Raman scattered light at the focal point includes the Raman scattered light emitted to the first light-transmitting window and the Raman scattered light emitted to the second light-transmitting window, a total of two Raman scattered lights, which improves the gas Raman scattered light collection efficiency of the gas detection system. The Raman scattered light at the focal point is received and transmitted by the optical fiber, and the Raman scattered light transmitted by the optical fiber is received by the spectral imaging subsystem to generate a Raman spectrum, thereby realizing the analysis of the Raman scattered light of the target gas using the Raman spectrum.
