摘要
We demonstrate feasibility of a new class of absorption spectroscopy sensors which use return scattering from native surfaces such as the piston of an automotive engine. Our demonstration experiment collects backscatter through a 2-mm-diameter aperture, consistent with a small sensor footprint. A 20 mW DFB laser is used, but only 10 A mu W is collected. We studied the noise associated with motion of the rough surface and found an RMS level of 7 %. Wavelength modulation spectroscopy (WMS) was used to overcome this noise. We demonstrate WMS spectra of H2O vapor with a SNR of > 400 for DFB scan ranges of 0.82 and 37 cm(-1).
