Abstract: A compact multi-component trace-gas detector based on the resonant photoacoustic technique and a NIR external cavity diode laser has been developed. It has been characterized using a mixture of ethylene and methane diluted in ambient air. A spectroscopic investigation of combination bands and overtones between 5900 and 6250 cm&sup-1;, obtained with an IR pulsed laser photoacoustic spectrometer, allowed us to find a wavelength region where the 2v[sub3] overtone of CH[sub4] and the v[sub5] + v[sub9] combination band of C[sub2]H[sub4] show uncongested rotational lines. Using a single-mode scan of the diode laser in this region, around 6150 cm&sup-1;, the sensitivity for the simultaneous detection of ethylene and methane is 8 ppm/mW and 40 ppm/mW respectively. Factors affecting the sensitivity and selectivity of the detection system and possible improvements suitable to reach the sub-ppm detection limit are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
