In the measurement of the differential absorption radar, the selection of the laser wavelength is very important, on one hand, the absorption difference of the target gas corresponding to the two wavelengths is as large as possible so as to increase the differential signal; on the other hand, the wavelength difference between the two laser beams cannot be too large, so that the system deviation caused by the backscattering difference and the aerosol extinction difference under different wavelengths is reduced.

The multi-wavelength ozone laser radar based on single photon CCD provided by the invention is explained in detail below. As shown in fig. 1, a multi-wavelength ozone laser radar based on single photon CCD mainly includes: the device comprises a laser light source 1, a first optical lens 2, a Raman tube 3, a second optical lens 4, a beam expander 5, a plane mirror 6, an optical receiving module 7, an optical fiber 8, a spectrometer 9, a single photon CCD10, a photon counter 11 and a main control module 12; wherein:
the laser light source 1 is an Nd-YAG laser; the Nd-YAG quadruple frequency laser is used for generating 266nm laser pulses(ii) a The first wavelength is 266 nm; the second wavelength is 289nm, and the third wavelength is 299 nm; the Raman tube 3 is filled with H2、D2And a buffer gas, said D2For generating Raman scattered light at 289nm, said H2For generating 299nm Raman scattered light; the buffer gas is used for suppressing laser mixing in the Raman tube.

The first wavelength laser beam and the first shunt form a first channel; and the second branch and the third wavelength laser form a second channel. 266nm-289nm (A%) to form a first channel for measuring low-altitude ozone; and 289nm (B%) -299nm constitute a second channel for measurement of high altitude ozone.
The working process of the invention is as follows:
the main control module 12 controls the Nd-YAG quadruple frequency laser 1 to emit laser pulses through a serial port, and simultaneously triggers the single-photon CCD to enter a detection preparation state; Nd-YAG quadruple frequency laser 1 emits 266nm laser pulse with high energyLaser pulse is focused on the middle position of a Raman tube 3 after passing through a first optical lens 2, the Raman tube body is made of stainless steel, thickened ultraviolet window sheets are arranged at two ends of the Raman tube, and H is filled in the Raman tube2、D2And Ar at high pressure. The 266nm laser pulse excites the stimulated Raman process in the tube and produces 299nm Raman scattered light by Raman shift of H2, by D2Produces 289nm raman scattered light. Ar in the tube is used as buffer gas, so that a four-wave mixing process can be inhibited, and the conversion efficiency of Raman light at 289nm and 299nm is improved; the laser emitted from the Raman tube is mainly 266nm pump light and 289nm and 299nm stimulated Raman light, the three wavelengths of light have higher consistency in the aspects of divergence angle, spot size, propagation direction and the like, and the laser can be used as a transmitting light source to reduce the measurement error of the ozone laser radar; the laser emitted by the Raman tube is converged by the second optical lens 4 and then becomes parallel light again, and the divergence angle of the laser is adjusted by the beam expander, so that the beam is expanded to a preset size, and the quality of the laser emitted by the radar is further improved; the spread laser changes the propagation direction through the plane mirror 6, and is vertically incident into the atmosphere for measuring the vertical distribution of ozone and obtaining the ozone concentration profile.
The optical receiving module 7 collects echo signals of the emitted laser after atmospheric reflection, and the optical receiving module 7 is a telescope combined by Cassegrain type double mirrors and comprises a paraboloid primary mirror and a hyperboloid secondary mirror.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the plane mirror 6 is disposed at one side of the optical receiving module 7, and the laser light emitted from the plane mirror 6 is parallel to and separated from the light received by the optical receiving module 7, which is called a transmit-receive split-axis structure. In another embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, the plane mirror 6 is disposed at the center of the telescope of the optical receiving module 7, so that the emitted laser light is in the receiving field of view of the optical receiving module 7, which is called a transmit-receive coaxial structure. The angle and direction of the emergent laser can be more conveniently adjusted by adjusting the plane mirror 6.
The telescope of the optical receiving module 7 is connected with the optical fiber 8, and the collected echo signals are transmitted to the high-resolution spectrometer 9 through the optical fiber; the spectrometer 9 uses a holographic grating, can perform high resolution spatial separation on echo signals with different wavelengths, and isolate background light outside the wavelength of 266nm-289nm-299nm through three slits, wherein the 289nm echo signal passing through the slit is divided into two parts (B > A) of A% and B% through a beam splitting piece, and at the moment, four beams of spatially separated laser light exist behind the slit, namely 266nm-289nm (A%) -289nm (B%) -299 nm), wherein the 266nm-289nm (A%) forms a first channel for measuring low-altitude ozone; and 289nm (B%) -299nm constitute a second channel for measurement of high altitude ozone. Since the low-altitude echo signal energy is high, the low-altitude echo signal is attenuated by the neutral density filter.
The single-photon CCD10 receives the four beams of light separated by the spectrometer 9 and performs photoelectric conversion, and the four beams of laser light irradiate different areas of the single-photon CCD10, respectively, without interfering with each other. Since the single-photon CCD10 is chosen to allow individual timing control for each pixel. In this way, the timing control unit of the main control module 12 can individually control the measurement time of each echo signal, thereby avoiding the detector saturation and even damage caused by the over-strong initial signal.
The specific switching time sequence of the single-photon CCD is as follows: under the control of the main control module 12, after the Nd-YAG quadruple frequency laser 1 emits laser pulses about 0.1us (a first time interval), a 266nm + a% 289nm pixel part of a first channel on the single-photon CCD for detecting a low-level echo signal starts to perform photoelectric conversion; after about 10us (second time interval), the pixel part of the second channel B% 289+299nm for detecting the high-altitude echo signal starts to work, after the measuring process lasts about 300us, the whole CCD stops photoelectric conversion, the processes are repeated after the next laser pulse is emitted, and the laser radar system can continuously work in the circulating reciprocating mode; photon signals collected by the single photon CCD are recorded by a single photon counter 11; the main control module 12 can perform time sequence control on pulse emission of the Nd-YAG quadruple frequency laser and signal acquisition of the detection module, and process photon signals recorded by the photon counter 11, thereby obtaining the ozone concentration through inversion.
Fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of the spectrometer 9 in fig. 1 (or fig. 2). As shown in fig. 3, the outside of the spectrometer is an aluminum square box, one side of which is equipped with an optical fiber coupling head 91 for emitting the received echo signal through an optical fiber, and the other side is an ultraviolet window 92; echo signal 93 is the set of all echo signals; the holographic grating 94 may spatially separate the echo signals of different wavelengths. The echo signal is divided into 266nm echo signals 97 after passing through the holographic grating; 289nm echo signal 96; 299nm echo signal 95.
And the reflector group (910, 911, 912, 913) is used for further adjusting the propagation directions of the echo signals with different wavelengths.
The first slit 914 allows the echo signal of 266nm to pass; the second slit 915 allows passage of an echo signal at 289 nm; the third slit 916 allows the echo signal of 299nm to pass through, while blocking other wavelengths of laser light and background sunlight.
