Abstract
A new temperature measurement method based on light-induced thermoelastic spectroscopy (LITES) was demonstrated for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, in this manuscript. According to the thermoelastic effect of quartz tuning fork (QTF), this technique retrieves the temperature on the basis of the resonance signal of QTF. Wavelength modulation spectroscopy (WMS) combined with the dual-line method was used to achieve temperature measurement. A QTF with high-frequency selectivity and high-quality factor (Δf0 = 2.5 Hz, Q-factor = 13104.9) was used as the detection element to suppress noise and improve the signal level. Two absorption lines of water vapor (H2O) located at 7153.749 cm−1 and 7154.354 cm−1 were selected as the target line. A single distributed feedback (DFB) diode laser was used to cover the two selected absorption lines simultaneously to reduce the complexity of the sensor system. A tube furnace capable of covering a temperature range from 400°C to 1000°C was adopted to verify the performance of this method. The relative error of the measured temperature was less than 5%, which indicated that the LITES temperature sensor has excellent detection accuracy. Compared to the widely used TDLAS temperature measuring method, this LITES-based technique has the merits of low cost, has no wavelength limitation, and is expected to be applied on more occasions.
