Abstract

See full text

A sensor system for sensing the presence of methane and sulfur hexafluoride in an area includes (i) a laser assembly including a quantum cascade gain medium that generates a MIR output beam that is directed at the area; and (ii) an imager that captures a thermal image of the area when the MIR output beam is generated. To sense the presence of methane, the MIR output beam has a center wavelength that is in the range of between approximately 7.654 and 7.668 microns. Alternatively, to sense the presence of sulfur hexafluoride, the MIR output beam has a center wavelength that is in the range of between approximately 10.56 and 10.58 microns.
