In this paper, we consider an integrated optical system designed to analyze the composition of ambient air. The optical system consists of a dynamic Michelson interferometer and a multi-pass White gas cell. We use steady state IR radiation source, that is integrated in the system. IR Radiation is modulated by passing through the interferometer, and then enters a multi-pass gas cell. We use two MCT TE cooled photodetector as reference and signal detectors. To digitize registered signal, we use a 24-bit ADC. For the described system, the sensitivity limit is about ppb levels, that allows detecting volatile substances at the maximum permissible concentrations. Described FTIR spectroscopy systems can be used for ambient air analysis and for breathomics applications. |
