Feasibility
IRON
PHOTOACOUSTIC SPECTROSCOPY
• Photoacoustic effect was discovered in 1880 by Alexander Graham Bell
• This theoretical potential has not been reached, since conventional microphones have been used for sensing the pressure pulses
• Gasera’s novel cantilever sensor technology allows the use of the full potential of the photoacoustic phenomena
Photoacoustic spectroscopy is based on the absorption of light leading to the local warming of the absorbing volume element. The subsequent expansion of the volume element generates a pressure wave proportional to the absorbed energy, which can be detected via a pressure detector.
