COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE EFFECT OF SENSING PARAMETERS ON OZONE GAS ABSORPTION-CROSS-SECTION

Abstract

Obviously in this 21st century, photonics is causing a major revolution. As a result in this work, we zeroed in on one of the applications of photonics, which is sensor based. In this paper, the simultaneous effect of the variation of optical path length and temperature on the absorption cross section of ozone at 334.15nm referenced wavelengths in the UV is proposed. To actualise accuracy in measurements, optical absorption spectroscopy has been adopted via an online real time Spectralcalc.com simulation software. The simulated Absorption crosssection (ACS) results show a 1.67% increase with decreasing temperature from 350K – 100K. However, increase in the optical path-length from 0.75cm – 130cm has no effect on the ozone ACS. Results obtained are relevant to Green Communications.
