摘要：
We demonstrate what is, to our knowledge, the first use of mid-infrared laser absorption spectroscopy for trace-gas measurements of cyclotron target outputs used for the generation of radioactive carbon-11 in positron emission tomography (PET). The spectrometer was based upon a liquid-nitrogen-cooled lead salt diode laser generating single-mode radiation in the wavenumber range of 2230-2240 cm-1. The sample flowed to a multiple-pass optical cell with a total path length of 15.23 m and the laser radiation was detected by two liquid-nitrogen-cooled InSb photodetectors. We present the results of CO, N2O and CO2 measurements on PET trace cyclotron output and discuss future work on 11sCO and 11CO(2) detection.
