Abstract

A proof of principle experiment was performed by recording the cavity enhanced absorption spectrum of the weak b-X transition of molecular oxygen in the atmosphere using a Ti:Sa femtosecond laser as an absorption source and a high resolution continuous scan Fourier transform interferometer. The cavity was mode matched and either continuously scanned or stabilized at the so-called magic point. An optimal rms noise equivalent absorption of 3x10(-7) cm(-1) Hz(-1/2) was reached in the latter case, corresponding to alpha(min)=3x10(-7) cm(-1).
