摘要
Photothermal spectroscopy (PTS) is a technique used for determining the composition of liquids, solids and gases. In PTS, the sample is illuminated with a radiation source, and the thermal response of the analyte (e.g., refractive index) is analyzed to gain information about its content. Recent advances in this unique method of detecting gaseous samples show that photothermal gas spectroscopy can be an interesting alternative to commonly used absorption techniques. Moreover, if designed properly, sensors using PTS detection technique can not only reach sensitivities comparable with other, more complex techniques, but can significantly simplify the design of the sensor. In this review, recent developments in photothermal spectroscopy of gases will be summarized and discussed.
