A novel open-path Fourier-transform infrared (OP-FTIR) spectrometer has been designed that differs from conventional OP-FTIR spectrometers in that it uses a low-resolution interferometer and a deuterated h-alanine-doped triglycine sulfate detector. Separate transmitting and receiving telescopes, the mirrors of which are fabricated from spin-cast epoxy resin, and a lateral transfer hollow retroreflector are also incorporated. The new design allows for a lighter, rugged, robust system that can easily be employed in remote sensing/continuous monitoring for both indoor and outdoor (fence-line or traditional) environments. Advantages over contemporary instruments were found in weight, cost, and utility. |
