New All-Solid-State KTA-Based DIAL for Tropospheric Methane Monitoring
Division of Science and Engineering, Saint Louis University-Madrid campus, Avenida del Valle, 34. Madrid 2803, Spain
Published online: 7 July 2020
We present an Optical Parametric Oscillator (OPO)-based differential absorption lidar (DIAL) that operates in the mid-infrared (3.0-4.5 um). Tunability of the OPO is achieved by the use of Potassium Titanyle Arsenate (KTiOAsO4), or KTA crystal. The Dial measurements of methane are in good agreement with reported values and also exhibits diurnal fluctuations in concentration levels during atmospheric monitoring.
