In recent years, industrial production and national defense modernization have put forward higher requirements for the performance of sensors. The research and development of high-performance new sensors has attracted more and more attention. For gas sensing, the development of high performance and low-cost medium-wave infrared detectors at high operating temperature or even room temperature is one of the main development directions in the future. In recent years, HgCdTe, quantum well and antimonide infrared detectors have been the research hotspots of mid-wave infrared detectors. They have their own characteristics in device physics and device performance, and have their own advantages in gas detection applications. This paper summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of three kinds of mid-wave infrared detectors, and introduces the research status and development.
ABSTRACT The continuous emission of greenhouse gases leads to the sharp rise of environmental temperature. Its content and distribution also affect the atmosphere radiation, climate characteristics, stratosphere troposphere exchange (STE) and circulation in the near-tropopause region. Methane is the second most important greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide, and its concentration has strong gradients near the tropopause. Therefore, the sensitivity, accuracy of methane detection approach in extreme environment have been greatly restricted, and this has become a technical bottleneck for low-temperature and low-pressure gas detection. To address this, a novel 3-dimensional compensation model of temperature and pressure is reported based on the simulation of methane absorption characteristic. Through a detailed investigation, the simulation system and compensation model are evaluated, the detection accuracy is improved by an order of magnitude; the minimum detection limit is ~0.012ppm with integration time is 59s.
The coal industry plays an important role in the economic development of China. With the increase of coal mining year by year, coal mine accidents caused by gas explosion also occur frequently, which poses a serious threat to the life safety of absenteeism and national property safety. Therefore, high-precision methane fiber sensor is of great significance to ensure coal mine safety. This paper mainly introduces two kinds of quasi-distributed gas optical fiber sensing systems based on laser absorption spectroscopy. The gas fiber optic sensor based on absorption spectrum has high measurement accuracy, fast response and long service life. One is quasi-distributed optical fiber sensing system based on spatial division multiplexing (SDM) technology and the other is quasi-distributed optical fiber sensing system based on optical time domain reflection and time division multiplexing(TDM) technology.
