Lidar measurements of aerosol depolarization ratio
Lidar measurements of the aerosol depolarization ratio provide highly reliable informations to discriminate between spherical and non-spherical particles in the atmosphere and they can help to distinguish between liquid and solid phase aerosols. These measurements can be performed by using a linearly polarized laser source and a hardware configuration of the receiving system including two chann...
متن کاملAutocorrelation Measurement of Femtosecond Optical Pulses Using Two-Photon-Induced Photocurrent in a Photomultiplier Tube
Very sensitive intensity autocorrelation measurement of 15-fs, 800-nm pulses from a Ti:sapphire laser has been achieved by using two-photon-induced photocurrent in a photomultiplier tube.
متن کاملMeasurement and Study of Lidar Ratio by Using a Raman Lidar in Central China
We comprehensively evaluated particle lidar ratios (i.e., particle extinction to backscatter ratio) at 532 nm over Wuhan in Central China by using a Raman lidar from July 2013 to May 2015. We utilized the Raman lidar data to obtain homogeneous aerosol lidar ratios near the surface through the Raman method during no-rain nights. The lidar ratios were approximately 57 ± 7 sr, 50 ± 5 sr, and 22 ± ...
متن کاملSilicon photomultiplier detector for atmospheric lidar applications.
The viability and performance of using a silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) in atmospheric lidar applications is experimentally compared against the well-established use of photomultiplier tubes. By using a modified lidar setup for simultaneous data acquisition of both types of sensors, we demonstrate that a SiPM can offer appropriate qualities for this specific application where the detection of f...
متن کاملPrecise measurement of the depolarization ratio from photoacoustic Raman spectroscopy
A new method for the accurate determination of the Raman depolarization ratio is reported with an improved setup for photoacoustic Raman spectroscopy (PARS). The precise measurement is achieved by measuring the dependence of the acoustic signal intensity on the cross-angle between the polarizations of two incident laser beams. We demonstrate this sensitive and simple method with several gaseous...
