the ring-down time of a HeeNe laser beam passing through an optical cavity (Anderson et al., 1984). In 1988, O’Keefe and Deacon built the first cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) device using a pulsed laser, and successfully measured the spectrum of the oxygen molecule, marking the beginning of the CRDS technology (O’Keefe and Deacon, 1988).

Cavity ring-down spectroscopy CRDS is a general, high-sensitivity technique for measuring absorption which has been applied primarily to studies of species that are ei-ther very dilute or very weakly absorbing.1 In CRDS, light from a laser source is injected into a high finesse optical resonator, called the ring-down cavity RDC , that encloses

The experimental setup based on Cavity Ring Down spectroscopy (CRDS) technique has been designed, built and tested using pulsed laser sources. The CRDS is a 

26/11/  · Cavity ring-down (CRD) spectroscopy is a direct absorption technique, which can be performed with pulsed or continuous light sources and has a significantly higher sensitivity than obtainable in conventional absorption spectroscopy.

CRDS: A technology that can assess the amount of molecules in the air by measuring the molecular absorption of laser light in an optical cavity.
