Abstract

AbstractA high‐resolution photoacoustic Raman spectroscopy experiment is described. The resolution achieved by using two single‐mode pulsed lasers is about 0.0054 cm−1 (full width at half maximum intensity). The experiment was tested first on the v1/2v2 bands of CO2 and gave an increase of at least about one order of magnitude in the signal‐to‐noise ratio with respect to stimulated Raman spectroscopy at low pressure (ca. 10 Torr ≈ 1.3 kPa). The sensitivity is also demonstrated by the study of the weak hot band v1 + v2 — v2 of CO2. In both cases, the experimental line shape is well reproduced by taking into account Doppler and collisional effects. A comparison with CARS spectra was also made.
