Combustion Diagnostics

For understanding and accurately modeling combustion, the important questions are what species are present in the flame, and the spatial distribution and temperature of these species. Traditional optical methods used only the electromagnetic waves in the wavelength region from the ultraviolet region up to the infrared. Terahertz time-domain spectroscopy technique can be used for the combustion research as a novel tool. However, for some sooty combustion environments, the strong absorption, spectral interference from soot scattering, and fluorescence from large molecules must be considered. The optical properties of soot in the terahertz domain are the main basic data for terahertz application. In this paper, the terahertz time-domain spectroscopy technique was used to study the optical properties of flame soot within 0.2–1.6 THz. The complex refractive indices of the soot were deduced by the fixed-point iteration method. In order to validate the results, the complex refractive indices of the soot from the four different fuel flames were deduced. It was found that the complex refractive indices in the terahertz domain of the soot from the different fuel flames are very close to each other. The comparisons of complex refractive indices between the visible–IR domain and the terahertz domain indicate that the value of absorption index in terahertz domain is smaller than in IR domain, which implies that the terahertz wave will penetrate the sooty flame with smaller absorption than the IR rays. The results can provide the basic optical data of flame soot for the application of terahertz time-domain spectroscopy technique in the optical combustion diagnostics and extend the optical combustion diagnostics application area.

Polyaniline Nanoparticles

In this study, we investigated the changes in the molecular structure of polyaniline (PANI) nanoparticles illuminated by a proton beam using terahertz (THz) thermal spectroscopy based on the terahertz time-domain spectroscopy technique. PANI nanoparticles in water were exposed to a proton beam of 35 MeV energy with a particle fluence of 1013 particles/cm2. The photothermal properties of this solution of PANI nanoparticles were characterized using THz thermal spectroscopy. We measured the changes in the amplitudes of the reflected THz pulses to identify the variations in temperature induced by the photothermal effects of the PANI nanoparticle solution. The amplitude of a reflected THz pulse of the PANI solution not exposed to the proton beam increased when illuminated by an infrared light source, whereas that of THz signals of the PANI solution exposed to the proton beam hardly exhibited any changes. This implies that the molecular structure of PANI nanoparticles can be varied by a proton beam with a particle fluence above 1013 particles/cm2.
