Abstract
A continuous-wave quantum cascade laser (CW-QCL) based spectrometer is developed to investigate the high-resolution spectral parameters of nitric oxide (NO). Line strengths and nitrogen (N2)-, carbon dioxide (CO2)-, water vapor (H2O)-, broadening coefficients for NO R(6.5) are measured. The spectral region ranging from 1989 cm−1 to 1901 cm−1, which is suitable for the in situ laser sensing of trace NO, is investigated. Spectral parameters are determined by fitting absorption spectra with multi-peak Voigt profiles. The measured intensities are compared to the HITRAN2020 database to assess the performance of the system and a good agreement within ±5% is obtained for the established lines. The measurement results are useful for the design of a spectroscopic sensor for monitoring exhaled breath NO, vehicle exhaust, and industrial emissions.
