Abstract
In the current study, a quantum-cascade-laser-based dual-comb spectrometer (DCS) was used to paint a detailed picture of a 1.0 ms high-temperature reaction between propyne and oxygen. The DCS interfaced with a shock tube to provide pre-ignition conditions of 1225 K, 2.8 atm, and 2% p-C3H4/18% O2/Ar. The spectrometer consisted of two free-running, non-stabilized frequency combs each emitting at 179 wavelengths between 1174 and 1233 cm-1. A free spectral range, f_r, of 9.86 GHz and a difference in comb spacing, Δf_r, of 5 MHz, enabled a theoretical time resolution of 0.2 us but the data was time-integrated to 4 us to improve SNR. The accuracy of the spectrometer was monitored using a suite of independent laser diagnostics and good agreement observed.
