Raman lidar spectroscopy with image intensifier plates (MCP). Preliminary study
Abstract
The main advantage of the Raman lidar method, the simultaneous measurement of all gas spectra, in air pollution monitoring has been realized by using multichannel plates. The development of a high energy laser (500 MW, 1 Hz) is discussed and the testing of improved frequency doublers based on potassium dihydrogen phosphates is dealt with. The reliability required for the measurements was achieved by means of a newly developed volume absorber calorimeter.
