摘要
An optical-optical double resonance (OODR) laser induced fluorescence (LIF) for the detection of the N-2(A (3)Sigma(u)(+)) metastable is described. OODR employs the double laser excitation of A-B and B-C nitrogen transitions. Here it is proposed as a sensitive approach to detect N-2(A (3)Sigma(u)(+)) in high-pressure discharges. We have tested its sensitivity with respect to conventional single photon LIF by an excitation/detection scheme in which the two wavelengths required are generated by a provisional single laser setup. Other single laser configurations that might allow a sensitivity close to two orders of magnitude larger than that of conventional LIF are proposed. Such gain can be particularly useful for the detection of N-2(A (3)Sigma(u)(+)) in non-equilibrium, high-pressure discharges.
