This invention relates to the field of optical
spectroscopy, specifically providing a hemispherical
photoacoustic cell and a gas detection method. The hemispherical
photoacoustic cell includes a
cell body, a base, and a lamp plate. The
cell body is provided with a
resonant cavity, a resonant chamber, and an air vent. The
resonant cavity is a hemispherical groove, and the resonant chamber has a through-hole structure. The resonant chamber is connected to the resonant chamber through a connecting hole. The
resonant cavity and the resonant chamber have the same resonant frequency. The air vent penetrates the
cell body and is connected to the resonant chamber. The base is fixedly connected to the cell body and is located at the opening of the resonant chamber to block it. The lamp plate is fixedly connected to the base and is located at the opening of the cell body. The lamp plate is provided with a light-emitting component to generate light with a preset
wavelength, frequency, and intensity. A
microphone is used to pick up the photoacoustic
signal within the resonant chamber. This invention can effectively reduce the cost of photoacoustic gas measurement.
