Description
Opportunity:
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), operated by the Lawrence Livermore National Security (LLNS), LLC under contract no. DE-AC52-07NA27344 (Contract 44) with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is offering the opportunity to enter into a collaboration to further develop and commercialize its compact multi-gas monitoring system.
Background:
Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS) is a common method for gas analysis that is fast, highly selective, reliable and accurate. The analytical method works by exciting certain gas species in the sample chamber with the tunable laser source, which induces characteristic vibrations and rotations at specific wavelengths. The spectral output is a distinct chemical fingerprint in which the concentration of the active gas molecules can be quantified. Most of these analyzers are either large benchtop instruments or smaller systems with reduced sensitivity.
There exists a need for a sensitive, miniature spectrometer that can detect multiple gases in small, inaccessible spaces, or under challenging conditions for either direct reading or continuous monitoring applications.
Description:
LLNL researchers have developed a TDLAS-based, standalone, real-time gas analyzer in a small form-factor for continuous or single-point monitoring. The system can analyze multiple gases with ultra-high sensitivity (ppm detection levels) in harsh conditions when utilizing wavelength-modulation spectroscopy (WMS).
The key physical component of the system is the multi-pass gas minicell. The novel approach is the mirror configuration within the cell that is low signal loss, allowing for higher sensitivity compared to traditional mirror design of gas cells (e.g., white, Herriott). The other components of the monitoring system include:
commercially available tunable semiconductor laser (e.g., edge emitting lasers, vertical cavity surface emitting lasers to provide...
