High Sensitivity, Time-Resolved Absorption Spectroscopy by Intracavity Laser Techniques

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 184))

Abstract

Absorption measurements obtained by intracavity laser spectroscopy (ILS) are described which encompass exceptionally high detection sensi- tivites while maintaining the characteristics associated with quantitative, time-resolved spectrometry. The optical physics underlying ILS and the instrumentation utilized in obtaining these spectra are described. Absorption spectra recorded by ILS for stable absorbers, transient intermediates formed during reactions, and van der Waals complexes formed at low-temperature in supersonic jet expansions are presented.
