Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] Gas absorption spectroscopy is a technique that uses the selective absorption properties of matter to qualitatively or quantitatively determine gas composition and concentration by analyzing the absorption of specific wavelengths of light by gas molecules. Cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) is a highly sensitive spectroscopy technique based on cavity ring-down time measurement. It quantitatively determines gas concentration by detecting the decay time of the light intensity of a light comb caused by gas absorption within an optical resonant cavity.

Due to the different absorption characteristics and refractive indices of different gases, a gas dispersion effect occurs, which affects the propagation of the optical signal and causes nonlinear modulation in the ring-down process.

The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0055] Traditional CRDS technology is limited by the narrowband nature of a single laser source, resulting in a narrow spectral range. Furthermore, the mechanical cavity length scanning method is susceptible to environmental vibrations, reducing measurement accuracy and stability. Furthermore, intracavity dispersion can affect the light field distribution, causing the signal ring-down characteristics to deviate from ideal conditions, further reducing measurement accuracy. Therefore, maintaining the high sensitivity of CRDS while expanding the measurement spectral range, reducing the impact of dispersion, and improving measurement stability are pressing technical challenges.
[0056] At the same time, existing CRDS technology also has the following technical issues: 1. Limited measurement range of the ring-down cavity: Current cavity ring-down systems can usually only measure the absorption spectrum of a single gas and cannot measure the absorption characteristics of multiple gases simultaneously. Due to the limitations of the light field distribution and cavity mode coupling within the cavity, existing systems are restricted when measuring the absorption spectra of multiple gases or a wide spectral range. 2. Limited measurement efficiency and time resolution: Traditional gas absorption measurements use a stepper mechanical scanning to adjust the cavity length, which has multiple problems, including slow scanning speed, low measurement efficiency, and susceptibility to external vibration and temperature changes, leading to error accumulation, which in turn affects accuracy and stability. Therefore, improving scanning speed and time resolution and reducing error accumulation are key issues that need to be urgently addressed in current technology.
[0057] Example 1
[0058] First, see Figures 1 to 2 , shows a schematic diagram of a piezoelectric ceramic-based dual-comb cavity modulation gas measurement system in the present invention, the system comprising: a dual-comb output module 1, a resonant cavity 2, a data acquisition and analysis module 3, and a piezoelectric ceramic modulation module 4; the dual-comb output module 1 is used to output a coherent detection light comb and a reference light comb; the resonant cavity 2 is connected to the dual-comb output module 1, and is used to accommodate the gas to be measured and receive the detection light comb; the piezoelectric ceramic modulation module 4 is partially arranged in the resonant cavity 2 and is electrically connected to the dual-comb output module 1, and is used to modulate the resonant cavity 2; the data acquisition and analysis module 3 is connected to the resonant cavity 2 and the dual-comb output module 1, and is used to receive the reference light comb and the detection light comb output from the resonant cavity 2; the data acquisition and analysis module 3 is used to perform analysis based on the detection light comb and the reference light comb to obtain spectral data of the gas to be measured, and perform composition and concentration analysis on the gas to be measured based on the spectral data.
[0059] In this embodiment, a dual-comb output module 1 generates coherent detection and reference optical combs. The detection optical comb enters resonant cavity 2 and interacts with the gas to be measured, while the reference optical comb directly reaches data acquisition and analysis module 3. A piezoelectric ceramic modulation module 4 dynamically adjusts the length of resonant cavity 2 by applying a periodic voltage signal. Based on the dual-comb interference signal generated by the reference and detection optical combs, data acquisition and analysis module 3 demodulates the spectral data of the gas to be measured using asynchronous sampling techniques. The piezoelectric ceramic-based dual-comb cavity modulation gas measurement system of the present invention utilizes the piezoelectric ceramic modulation module 4 to periodically and dynamically adjust the length of resonant cavity 2 based on the detection and reference optical combs, achieving dynamic modulation of the cavity length and transient coupling optimization. This significantly improves the system's sensitivity, measurement efficiency, and stability, and addresses the prior art technical issue of gas dispersion effects affecting optical signal propagation, leading to nonlinear modulation during ring-down and thus affecting measurement accuracy.
[0060] Optionally, refer to Figure 2The resonant cavity 2 in the present invention includes a cavity 21, a first cavity mirror 22 and a second cavity mirror 23; the cavity 21 includes an input end 211 and an output end 212 that are separated from each other, the input end 211 is connected to the dual-comb output module 1, and is used to receive the detection light comb; the output end 212 is connected to the data acquisition and analysis module 3, and is used to output the detection light comb to the data acquisition and analysis module 3; the first cavity mirror 22 and the second cavity mirror 23 are both arranged in the cavity 21, wherein the first cavity mirror 22 is arranged close to the input end 211, and the second cavity mirror 23 is arranged close to the output end 212; the first cavity mirror 22 and the second cavity mirror 23 are both connected to the piezoelectric ceramic modulation module 4.
[0061] Optionally, refer to Figure 2 The piezoelectric ceramic modulation module 4 in the present invention includes a first piezoelectric ceramic 41, a second piezoelectric ceramic 42, a first driving source 43, a second driving source 44 and a signal generator 45; the first piezoelectric ceramic 41 and the second piezoelectric ceramic 42 are both arranged in the cavity 21, wherein the first piezoelectric ceramic 41 is connected to the first cavity mirror 22, and the second piezoelectric ceramic 42 is connected to the second cavity mirror 23; the first driving source 43 and the second driving source 44 are both electrically connected to the signal generator 45, and the first driving source 43 is electrically connected to the first piezoelectric ceramic 41, and the second driving source 44 is electrically connected to the second piezoelectric ceramic 42; the signal generator 45 is electrically connected to the dual-comb output module 1.
[0062] In this embodiment, the first cavity mirror 22 and the second cavity mirror 23 in the resonant cavity 2 are connected to a piezoelectric ceramic drive source via a first piezoelectric ceramic 41 and a second piezoelectric ceramic 42, respectively. A signal generator 45 is electrically connected to the dual optical comb output module 1. A drive signal is output based on the repetition frequencies of the detection and reference optical combs. The drive signal drives the first and second piezoelectric ceramics 41 and 42, respectively, to modulate the first and second cavity mirrors 22 and 23, thereby dynamically modulating the cavity length of the resonant cavity 2 and optimizing transient coupling. This improves the sensitivity, measurement efficiency, and stability of the system and significantly suppresses ring-down signal distortion caused by gas dispersion effects. For example, a signal generator 45 generates an adjustable square wave signal from 10 Hz to 10 kHz, driving the first and second piezoelectric ceramics 41 and 42 to produce opposite displacements, thereby matching the cavity length to the repetition frequency of the optical comb in real time.
[0063] Furthermore, the first cavity mirror 22 and the second cavity mirror 23 in this embodiment are both high-reflectivity cavity mirrors with a reflectivity higher than 99.99%, so as to form an optical resonant cavity 2 with long optical path enhancement, thereby improving the sensitivity of the gas absorption signal.
[0064] Specifically, the performance of the high reflectivity resonant cavity 2 is mainly characterized by FSR (free spectral range) and F value (fineness).
[0065]
[0066] Where c is the speed of light, and FSR is directly related to the cavity length L of the resonant cavity 2. A larger cavity length will result in a smaller FSR, thereby improving the spectral resolution. In actual use, it is necessary to ensure that the repetition frequency f of the detection optical comb is rep1 Satisfy f rep1 =N×FSR, where N is an integer, to ensure that the detection optical comb has the same frequency as the longitudinal mode of the resonant cavity 2, thereby improving the measurement accuracy and stability.
[0067]
[0068] Here, R is the reflectivity of the first cavity mirror 22 and the second cavity mirror 23, and its value is approximately 1. The higher the F value, the longer the light field is stored in the resonant cavity 2, and the longer the time optical path (even up to the kilometer level), thereby significantly enhancing the interaction between light and gas and improving the detection sensitivity of gas absorption signals. This high-fineness characteristic is crucial for achieving high-precision gas absorption measurements.

[0070] In this embodiment, a guiding component 31, such as a reflector, an optical fiber path, etc., is used to guide the detection light comb output from the resonant cavity 2 to the beam combiner 32, and the reference light comb and the detection grating are combined in the beam combiner 32 to generate an optical domain signal; a balanced photodetector 33 is used to effectively suppress common mode noise, especially laser intensity noise and environmental noise, and significantly improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the signal, which not only optimizes the dynamic range of the system, but also ensures that weak absorption signals can be accurately extracted in a high background noise environment, thereby enhancing the stability and accuracy of the measurement; an acquisition card 34 is used to obtain the output signal of the balanced photodetector 33, convert it into a digital signal, and then output it to the analysis host 35, and in the analysis host 35, based on the digital signal, the dual-comb interference signal is demodulated, and the absorption spectrum is extracted in combination with Fourier transform technology to achieve high-precision gas analysis.
[0071] Optionally, the system in the present application further comprises a first adjustment component and a second adjustment component; wherein the first adjustment component is arranged between the dual optical comb output module 1 and the input end 211; and the second adjustment component is arranged between the dual optical comb output module 1 and the beam combiner 32.

[0073] In the present embodiment, the first 1 / 2 wave plate 5 is used to adjust the polarization state of the detection optical comb before entering the resonant cavity 2, so as to ensure the coupling efficiency and cavity mode matching of the optical signal in the resonant cavity 2, and improve the stability in the ring-down process; and the second 1 / 2 wave plate 6 and the 1 / 4 wave plate 7 are used to adjust the polarization direction of the reference optical comb when the beat frequency interference is performed in the beam combiner 32, so as to optimize the coherence and improve the quality and signal-to-noise ratio of the beat frequency signal, thereby ensuring the measurement accuracy and the spectral demodulation performance.
[0074] Optionally, the dual optical comb output module 1 in the present application is any one of an on-chip optical comb, a single-cavity dual-comb, and a frequency-stabilized and phase-stabilized dual-comb optical comb.
[0075] Embodiment two
[0076] In a second aspect, the present application further provides a dual optical comb cavity modulation gas measurement method based on a piezoelectric ceramic, which is used for the dual optical comb cavity modulation gas measurement system based on a piezoelectric ceramic in the first aspect, and comprises the following steps:
[0077] S1: selecting a gas to be measured, inputting the gas to be measured into the resonant cavity 2, and assembling the dual optical comb cavity modulation gas measurement system;
[0078] S2: starting the dual optical comb output module 1 to output coherent detection optical combs and reference optical combs, and obtaining the beat frequency difference between the detection optical combs and the reference optical combs in the dual grating output module;
[0079] S3: according to the beat frequency difference between the detection optical combs and the reference optical combs, using the piezoelectric ceramic modulation module 4 to adjust the shape of the first cavity mirror 22 and the second cavity mirror 23 in the resonant cavity 2 in real time, so that the cavity length is matched with the beat frequency difference in real time;
[0080] S4: using the data acquisition and analysis module 3 to collect and analyze the ring-down signal in the resonant cavity, and obtaining spectral data;
[0081] S5: according to the obtained spectral data, combining an adaptive filtering algorithm to analyze, and obtaining the concentration, composition, molecular structure and spectral characteristics of the target gas in the gas to be measured.
[0082] Optionally, the step S3 specifically comprises:
[0083] S3.1: Calculate the target cavity length change ΔL of resonator 2 based on the beat frequency difference Δf between the detection and reference optical combs.
[0084] S3.2: Generate a modulation voltage signal corresponding to ΔL using a signal generator 45 . The modulation voltage signal waveform is a radio frequency sine wave, square wave, or sawtooth wave, and the frequency range is 10 Hz to 10 kHz.
[0085] S3.3: Apply a modulated voltage signal to the first piezoelectric ceramic 41 and the second piezoelectric ceramic 42 through the first driving source 43 and the second driving source 44, and synchronously adjust the positions of the first cavity mirror 22 and the second cavity mirror 23 so that the cavity length matches the beat frequency difference Δf in real time.
[0086] Optionally, step S4 specifically includes:
[0087] S4.1: Use a photoelectric balanced detector to collect the ring-down signal in resonant cavity 2, employ dual-channel detection to eliminate common-mode noise, and obtain an intermediate signal.
[0088] S4.2: Use asynchronous sampling to obtain asynchronous sampled data of the intermediate signal;
[0089] S4.3: Based on the frequency domain demodulation algorithm and combined with Fourier transform, the spectral data of the target gas is extracted from the asynchronous sampling data.
[0090] Furthermore, in this embodiment, after the collected cavity ring-down signal is demodulated using asynchronous sampling technology, the various properties of the cavity gas, including but not limited to spectrum, dispersion and concentration, can be inverted using the Beer-Lambert law.
[0091] I=I 0· e -αL
[0092] Where I is the attenuated light intensity, I0 is the initial intensity of the incident light, a is the gas absorption coefficient, which is typically related to the gas concentration, light wavelength, and physical properties of the gas, and L is the cavity length of resonant cavity 2, that is, the propagation distance of the light comb in the gas. In resonant cavity 2, as the light comb propagates through the gas, absorption processes will cause light intensity to decay. If multiple absorption processes occur within the cavity, the total absorption effect of different gas components must also be considered, which can be comprehensively expressed by the total absorption coefficient.
[0093] Furthermore, the intermediate signal in this embodiment is a differential signal.
[0094] In this embodiment, a coherent detection light comb and reference light comb are generated by the dual-comb output module 1, and the beat frequency difference (Δf) between the two is used as a real-time control signal to drive the piezoelectric ceramic modulation module 4, so that the cavity length of the resonant cavity 2 dynamically matches the change of the light comb repetition frequency; the data acquisition and analysis module 3 uses asynchronous sampling and frequency domain demodulation algorithms to process the ring-down signal, and combines adaptive filtering technology to analyze the gas spectrum characteristics, deeply integrating the wide spectral coverage capability of the dual-comb, the nanometer-level displacement accuracy of the piezoelectric ceramic, and the anti-interference characteristics of digital signal processing, breaking through the limitations of traditional gas absorption measurement technology: through real-time closed-loop matching of the cavity length and the optical frequency, the gas absorption is dynamically compensated. The cavity mode mismatch caused by the bulk dispersion effect eliminates the nonlinear offset of the ring-down signal, significantly improves the measurement accuracy, and reduces the cross-interference error of the concentrations of various components in complex mixed gases; piezoelectric ceramic modulation replaces the mechanical scanning mechanism, and realizes microsecond cavity length adjustment driven by electrical signals, which not only expands the spectral coverage range, but also eliminates the delay and vibration noise caused by mechanical inertia, ensuring the long-term stability of the system in the high-disturbance environment of industrial sites; the coordinated design of balanced photoelectric detection and asynchronous sampling, combined with Fourier transform and adaptive filtering algorithms, effectively suppresses common-mode noise and extracts weak absorption signals, realizing real-time capture and analysis of transient gas concentration changes.
