Abstract

Spontaneous gas-phase Raman scattering using a hollow-core photonic bandgap fiber (HC-PBF) for both the gas cell and the Stokes light collector is reported. It was predicted that the HC-PBF configuration would yield several hundred times signal enhancement in Stokes power over a traditional free-space configuration because of increased interaction lengths and large collection angles. Predictions were verified by using nitrogen Stokes signals. The utility of this system was demonstrated by measuring the Raman signals as functions of concentration for major species in natural gas. This allowed photomultiplier-based measurements of natural gas species in relatively short integration times, measurements that were previously difficult with other systems. © 2008 Optical Society of America.
