Abstract

Spaceborne high spectral resolution lidar (HSRL) provides a wide range of observations, e.g., measurements of aerosol backscattering and extinction coefficients and aerosol depolarization ratio with high accuracy, which are of great significance to the study of air pollution monitoring and climate change. With different cells and finger temperatures, the transmittance of the different absorption lines of the iodine vapor filter at 532 nm wavelength was measured. The 1064 nm fundamental frequency pulse energy and the 532 nm frequency-doubled pulse energy output of different seeder laser wavelengths were measured. Based on the relationship among the laser output power, the absorption line shape of the iodine vapor filter, and the atmospheric model, the echo power was calculated and compared. The 1110 iodine absorption line was selected as the optimized filter for the HSRL, which could increase in 22% and 14% efficiency compared with the traditional 1109 line, and a new proposed 1105 line at the 532 nm HSRL channel at 5 km altitude with an enhanced aerosol model, respectively.
