Description

Micro-nano optical waveguide photo-thermal spectrum gas detection method and detection system
Technical Field

Background
The laser absorption spectrometry is a gas analysis method with high sensitivity and high selectivity, and has wide application in the fields of environmental monitoring, energy and power, national defense, aerospace and the like.
Based on various effects associated with light absorption, different laser absorption spectrum derivation methods have been developed. The laser photothermal spectroscopy utilizes the photothermal effect and the thermo-optic modulation characteristics brought by the photothermal effect to indirectly measure the gas concentration, has the advantage of no background noise, and effectively improves the sensitivity and accuracy of gas detection. Particularly, the micro-structure hollow optical fiber is used as a carrier, so that the interaction distance between light and a substance and the light energy density are greatly increased and improved, the heat production efficiency of a photothermal effect is greatly improved, and the excellent gas detection performance is realized.
However, microstructured hollow core optical fibers need to be prepared by a fiber draw tower under precise temperature and pressure control through special structural design. In gas detection, on one hand, the micro-structured hollow-core fiber needs to be precisely aligned and reliably connected with a standard single-mode fiber to form a gas detection system with a full-fiber structure. On the other hand, the gas fills the hollow optical fiber of the microstructure in a free diffusion mode, and the requirement of real-time detection cannot be met. Fabrication of microchannels can accelerate gas exchange, but can sacrifice mechanical strength and introduce losses in the microstructured hollow core fiber. In the above discussion, the cost and difficulty of fabricating microstructured hollow-core optical fibers, and the slow response speed, limit their large-scale application.

Meanwhile, the gas medium generally has a lower heat conduction coefficient, so that the coated micro-nano optical waveguide generates a heat accumulation effect, the photo-thermal efficiency is further improved, and the detection sensitivity of the gas concentration sensor is improved.

And finally, obtaining the real concentration of the substance to be detected according to the concentration relation between the photo-thermal signal and the substance to be detected.
The following is an exemplary description of the measurement principle of the present application.

Effective refractive index n of mode i effi Can be expressed as a propagation constant beta i In the form of:
Figure BDA0003830406460000131
wherein n represents the refractive index of the micro-nano optical fiber or the gas medium.
Considering the photothermal effect generated by the absorption of the pump light by the substance to be measured and the influence thereof, the instantaneous refractive index n of the material can be expressed as:
n(r,θ,z,t)=n 0 +dn/dT·T(r,θ,z,t) (5)
in the formula, dn/dT and n 0 The thermo-optic coefficient and the initial refractive index of a gas medium (r is more than d/2) or quartz (r is less than or equal to d/2), wherein (r, theta and z) are cylindrical coordinates, and t is time. Amplitude of temperature change T caused by photothermal effect, pump light intensity P and absorption coefficient alpha of substance to be detected 0 And its concentration C is proportional, which can be expressed as
T(r,θ,z,t)∝α 0 CP (6)
Then detection light HE caused by photo-thermal effect 1m The effective refractive index of the mode is modulated as
Δn 1m (z)=n eff,1m [n max (r,θ,z),λ s ]-n eff,1m [n min (r,θ,z),λ s ] (7)

The phase difference delta phi is in direct proportion to C, and theoretical analysis results show that the heat accumulation effect of the micro-nano optical waveguide and the large thermo-optic coefficient dn/dT of the optical fiber material can effectively enhance mode phase difference modulation, so that the photo-optic coefficient M in the micro-nano optical fiber is larger than that in the micro-structure hollow optical fiber in a low frequency band, namely the micro-nano optical fiber is more sensitive to the concentration C of a substance to be detected.

The effect of stable detection system is reflected.

In the figure, the curve starts to rise from 22 seconds until the gas coating amount reaches 90% of the whole micro-nano optical fiber at about 29 seconds, then the curve area gradually becomes stable and starts to fall at about 65 seconds until the gas coating amount reaches 10% of the whole micro-nano optical fiber at about 72 seconds. The test process is as follows: the gas collection chamber was first charged with pure nitrogen, 1% by volume methane gas was charged at a rate of 500 cubic centimeters per minute for 22 seconds, and 500 cubic centimeters per minute for 65 seconds, and the measured response time of methane gas was calculated to be about 7 seconds. The effect of short response time of the detection system is reflected.
Referring to fig. 10, fig. 10 is a graph of a measurement result of a methane gas sensor at normal temperature and normal pressure measured by the micro-nano optical waveguide photothermal spectroscopy gas detection method provided in the present application. In fig. 10, it can be seen that the photothermal signal is in direct proportion to the concentration of methane gas in the process of changing the volume concentration of methane gas from 4ppm to 1%, and a nonlinear relationship occurs when the concentration is greater than 1%. When the integration time is 240 seconds, the minimum detectable sensitivity of methane gas is about 440ppb, and the dynamic range of the system is up to nearly 6 orders of magnitude (about 9.1X 10) 5 ). The effect of ultrahigh dynamic range is embodied.
