Quantitative femtosecond, two-photon laser-induced fluorescence of atomic oxygen in high-pressure flames
Abstract:
Quantitative femtosecond two-photon laser-induced fluorescence of atomic oxygen was demonstrated in an H2/air flame at pressures up to 10 atm. Femtosecond excitation at 226.1 nm was used to pump the 3pP3J←←2pP3J electronic transition of atomic oxygen. Contributions from multiphoton de-excitation, production of atomic oxygen, and photolytic interferences were investigated and minimized by limiting the laser irradiance to ∼1011 W/cm2. Quantitative agreement was achieved with the theoretical equilibrium mole fraction of atomic oxygen over a wide range of fuel-air ratios and pressures in an H2/air laminar calibration burner.
