Abstract
An improved design of a resonant photoacoustic spectrophone is reported for aerosol absorption measurements by using a near-infrared laser diode (λ=802 nm; P=450 mW) in combination with a double-pass configuration for excitation of azimuthal modes and right-angle mounting of two electret microphones for signal detection. As a result of the new spectrophone setup a small-sized portable sensor system for real-time in situ elemental carbon monitoring is presented. The detection limit is estimated to 4.5×10-8cm-1 or 1.5 μg elemental carbon per m 3.
