Xenon ion laser-induced fluorescence using a visible tunable diode laser near 680 nm.

چکیده
Laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) measurements have been performed for the first time in a low temperature (Te approximately 0.6 eV) Xe plasma using a tunable diode laser in the visible range of wavelengths. The transition in Xe II involved the (3P1)5d[3]7/2 metastable state and the excitation wavelength was found to be 680.570+/-0.001 nm (air). LIF measurements of I 2 in a room temperature iodine gas cell were used to monitor the wavelength of the laser during the measurements.

Diode-pumped, single-frequency Cr:LiSrAlF6 ring laser.
The Ti:sapphire laser has become an established source for cw, watt-level, single-frequency power from 680 to 1050 nm, but the commonly used Ar-ion laser pump source is a disadvantage for many applications. Tunable, external-cavity, single-frequency diode lasers are available for portions of this wavelength region, but a given diode laser can cover a range of only 15– 25 nm. Cr:LiSrAlF6 (Cr:LiS...
متن کاملLIF Velocity Measurement of Sputtered Boron Atoms from Boron Nitride Target
Details of the boron nitride (BN) sputtering process are of interest for diagnostics and modeling of Hall thruster erosion. This contribution presents velocity distributions of sputtered boron atoms from BN targets. Measurements were performed for normally incident argon ions at energies of 300, 800, and 1200 eV, and xenon ion at 1200 eV. The velocity distributions were found using laser induce...
متن کاملNear-field laser-induced fluorescence velocimetry of neutral xenon in a 6-kW Hall thruster plume
We present laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) measurements of neutral xenon (6s [3/2]2) in the near-field plume of a 6-kW Hall thruster. The 823.163 nm (air) beam from a TUI Optics TA-100/830 tapered-amplifier diode laser is focused along an axial beamline onto a submillimeter interrogation volume, from which we collect resonant LIF. Polarization control via a rotating half-wave plate keeps the i...
متن کاملContinuous wave cavity ring down spectroscopy measurements of velocity distribution functions of argon ions in a helicon plasma.
We report continuous wave cavity ring down spectroscopy (CW-CRDS) measurements of ion velocity distribution functions (VDFs) in low pressure argon helicon plasma (magnetic field strength of 600 G, T(e) ≈ 4 eV and n ≈ 5 × 10(11) cm(-3)). Laser induced fluorescence (LIF) is routinely used to measure VDFs of argon ions, argon neutrals, helium neutrals, and xenon ions in helicon sources. Here, we d...
متن کاملDiode-laser-based sum-frequency generation of tunable wavelength-modulated UV light for OH radical detection.
Greater than 1.5 microW of tunable wavelength-modulated 308-nm radiation was generated by sum-frequency mixing of 90 mW of 835-nm diode-laser output and 1.5 W of 488-nm Ar(+)-laser output in a beta-barium metaborate crystal. Hydroxyl radicals formed in a discharge-flow reactor were detected by use of the generated UV beam by direct absorption, wavelength-modulation absorption spectroscopy, and ...
