AI 中文摘要
我们展示了一种用于远程开放路径傅里叶变换红外光谱的新方法,该方法利用未检测光子。与之前的量子光谱研究类似,通过仅检测近红外辐射来重建中红外光谱,绕过了红外探测器的重要限制。本研究依赖于光子对和泵浦激光在同一光路中共传播,这使得能够远距离探测开放大气。我们在室外大气中实现了高达43.4米的前所未有的光子传输距离,检测到了开放路径中释放的丁烷以及天然大气中的甲烷,首次证明了利用未检测光子的红外光谱进行大气测量。
英文摘要
We demonstrate a novel method for remote open-path Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy with undetected photons. Similar to previous quantum spectroscopy works, a mid-infrared spectrum is reconstructed by detecting a near-infrared radiation only, thus bypassing important limitations of infrared detectors. Our study however relies on the co-propagation of the photon-pair and the pump-laser over the same optical path, which allows the probing of the open atmosphere over long distances. By sending the photons over unprecedented distances of up-to 43.4m in the outdoor atmosphere, we were able to detect butane released in the open-path, as well as natural atmospheric methane, thus demonstrating the first use of infrared spectroscopy with undetected photons for atmospheric measurements.
