Kurzfassung englisch:
We demonstrate non-contact remote photoacoustic spectroscopy
in the mid-infrared region. A room-temperatureoperated
pulsed external-cavity quantum cascade laser is
used to excite photoacoustic waves within a semitransparent
sample. The ultrasonic waves are detected remotely on the
opposite side of the sample using a fiber-optic Mach-
Zehnder interferometer, thereby avoiding problems associated
with acoustic attenuation in air. We present the
theoretical background of the proposed technique and
demonstrate measurements on a thin polystyrene film.
The obtained absorption spectrum in the region of
1030-1230 cm−1 is compared to a spectrum obtained by
attenuated total reflection, showing reasonable agreement.
