Gas-phase Raman build?

Post by kaneseam »

Hello, new here. Posting to learn more about this system.

Has anyone here attempted to build this system for gas-phase measurements?
I've used a commercial system from Atmosphere Recovery, INC for almost a decade now which is extremely expensive and outdated, and I would like to get away from that product and move into something more user-tunable.

Have used it as an online measurement system for gaseous emissions and chemical process reactors. I think the gas cell in that unit operates at 50C.

Just looking for some insight, thanks!

Not on my side unfortunately.

I guess it would require some kind of optical cavity to concentrate the Raman emission. Something like this setup:

No idea either on the alignment difficulty but I can already tell you that I'm not aware of cheap retroreflector that would have such a hole in the center :/
