Chan, C.Y., Hard, T.M., Mehrabzadeh, A.A., George, L.A. and O’Brien, R.J. (1990). Third-generation FAGE instrument for tropospheric hydroxyl radical measurement. Journal of Geophysical Research 95: doi: 10.1029/90JD01619. issn: 0148-0227.

We have constructed a single-stage, frequency-doubled, copper vapor laser-pumped dye laser to be used in the measurement of atmospheric hydroxyl radical concentrations. This laser can be tuned to either the 1←0 or 0←0 vibrational transition in the electronic transition 2∑←2∏. A new photon counting instrument is used for HO fluorescence detection. Theoretical and experimental studies of instrument performance show better sensitivities and reduced photolytic interferences than have been possible with previous systems based upon Nd:YAG pumping. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1990
