Laser Raman Spectroscopy of Flames: Theory and Preliminary Results
Abstract
A Raman spectroscopy apparatus using intracavity argon ion laser excitation and photon counting detection has been used to measure both pure rotational and rotational-vibrational spectra of N2 from room temperature up to approximately 2200 K using pure gas samples, methane-air, and methane-nitrous oxide flames. Synthetic spectra generated by computer have been used to extract temperatures from the rotational-vibrational data using peak height ratios.
