비분산 적외선 방식에 의한 대기 중 일산화 탄소 측정용 검출기를 제작하고, 감도 및 안정성을 조사하였다. 검출 감도를 향상시키기 위하여 동일 흡수셀 내에 3개의 반사거울을 장착하여 셀 안에서의 빛의 통과거리가 증가되도록 설계하였다. 50cm 길이의 셀 안에서 빛의 통과거리를 16m까지 늘릴 수 있도록 컴퓨터 모사에 의해 반사거울의 곡률반경 및 곡률중심, 셀 안에서의 위치 등을 산출하여 셀을 제작하였다. 빛의 경로와 광학적 특성은 모의 셀 안에서 laser beam alignment에 의해 확인하였다. 투과광의 검출에는 광전도성 PbSe센서를 사용하였으며, 센서소자는 열전냉각방식에 의해 냉각하였다. 제작된 일산화 탄소 검출기의 검출한계와 스팬 드리프트는 각각 0.24ppm과 0.03ppm(v/v)이었다.
A detector for monitoring carbon monoxide (CO) in ambient air by nondispersive infrared (NDIR) spectroscopy has been developed and investigated its sensitivity and stability. The essential parts of the absorption cell are three spherical concave mirrors so as to improve the sensitivity by increasing the light path length in the cell. The radius and center of curvature of mirrors and position in the cell was calculated by computer simulation in order that the light path length may be 16m into the 50cm cell. The number of traversals and optical path properties were confirmed by laser beam alignment in transparent absorption cell. The photoconductive type lead selenide (PbSe) was used as CO sensing material, which was cooled to increase the responsibility by thermoelectric cooling method. The detection limit and span drift of the developed CO detector was 0.24ppm and 0.03ppm(v/v) respectively.
