Extreme frequency accuracy and high sensitivity are obtained with a novel comb-locked cavity-ringdown spectrometer operating in the near-infrared from 1.5 to 1.63 μm. A key feature of our approach is the tight frequency locking of the probe laser to the comb, ensuring very high reproducibility and accuracy to the frequency axis upon scanning the comb repetition rate, as well as an efficient light injection into a length-swept high-finesse passive cavity containing the gas sample. Spectroscopic tests on the (30012) ← (00001) P14e line of CO2 at ~1.57 μm demonstrate an accuracy of ~ 17 kHz on the line center frequency in a Doppler broadening regime over the time scale of about 5 min, corresponding to four consecutive spectral scans of the absorption line. Over a single scan, which consists of 1500 spectral points over 75 s, the limit of detection is as low as 5.7 x 10-11 cm-1. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
