In this review, methane absorption characteristics mainly in the near-infrared region and typical types of currently available semiconductor lasers are described. Wavelength modulation spectroscopy (WMS), frequency modulation spectroscopy (FMS), and two-tone frequency modulation spectroscopy (TTFMS), as major techniques in modulation spectroscopy, are presented in combination with the application of methane detection.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
