  • Resonant photo acoustic system
    Patent number: 9243998
    Abstract: A device includes a resonator having an oscillating portion with dimensions chosen to lead to a desired resonant frequency. A light source is positioned to provide light along the length of the oscillating portion at a specific wave length. A detector detects a change in oscillation of the resonator responsive to the wave pressure produced by the light source heating a gas. The light source is modulated with a frequency the same as the resonant frequency of the resonator.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 15, 2012
    Date of Patent: January 26, 2016
    Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.
    Inventors: Viorel Avramescu, Mihai Gologanu, Daniel Youngner, Bob Jon Carlson
