CRDS measurements of air-broadened lines in the 1.6 µm band of 12 CO 2 : Line shape parameters with their temperature dependence
Résumé
The 12CO2 band at 1.6 µm is used for carbon dioxide monitoring in the Earth atmosphere. The targeted accuracy of these measurements motivates important efforts to improve the quality of the spectroscopic parameters in atmospheric conditions. In the present work, the line shapes of the R(6), R(12), R(16), R(18) and R(20) transitions of the 30013-00001 band of 12CO2 in air are studied with a cavity ring down spectrometer (CRDS). For each transition, high signal-to-noise ratio spectra (between 2000 and 20000) are recorded at different temperatures (250, 274, 285, 295 and 320 K) and total pressures (50, 100, 250, 500 and 750 Torr). To this end, a spectrally narrowed and stable (sub-kHz) laser source is coupled into a temperature regulated high-finesse optical cavity. The frequency scale of each spectrum is accurately determined from measurements of the frequency of the beat note between a part of the laser light and the closest tooth of a frequency comb referenced to a rubidium clock. A multi-spectrum fit procedure with quadratic speed dependent Nelkin-Ghatak profiles, including line-mixing effects, has been used to derive for each transition, the different spectroscopic parameters and their temperature dependence. Results are discussed in comparison with previous experimental data, HITRAN2020 database and values obtained from requantized classical molecular dynamics simulations (rCMDS).
