Accurate determination of the Boltzmann constant by Doppler spectroscopy: Towards a new definition of the kelvin

Benoît Darquié, Sinda Mejri, Papa Lat Tabara Sow +6

Accurate molecular spectroscopy in the mid-infrared region allows precision measurements of fundamental constants. For instance, measuring the linewidth of an isolated Doppler-broa…

Measuring the Boltzmann constant by mid-infrared laser spectroscopy of ammonia

S. Mejri, Papa Sow, O. Kozlova +7

We report on our ongoing effort to measure the Boltzmann constant, using the Doppler broadening technique on ammonia. This paper presents some of the improvements made to th…

Absorption line shape recovery beyond the detection bandwidth limit: application to the precision spectroscopic measurement of the Boltzmann constant

François Rohart, Sinda Mejri, Papa Lat Tabara Sow +8

A theoretical model of the influence of detection bandwidth properties on observed line shapes in laser absorption spectroscopy is described. The model predicts artificial frequenc…

A widely tunable 10-m quantum cascade laser phase-locked to a state-of-the-art mid-infrared reference for precision molecular spectroscopy

Papa Lat Tabara Sow, Sinda Mejri, Sean K. Tokunaga +7

We report the coherent phase-locking of a quantum cascade laser (QCL) at 10-m to the secondary frequency standard of this spectral region, a CO2 laser stabilized on a saturated…

A revised uncertainty budget for measuring the Boltzmann constant using the Doppler Broadening Technique on ammonia

Cyril Lemarchand, Sinda Mejri, Papa Lat Tabara Sow +6

We report on our on-going effort to measure the Boltzmann constant, kB, using the Doppler Broadening Technique. The main systematic effects affecting the measurement are discussed.…

Evidence for speed-dependent effects in NH3 self-broadened spectra: towards a new determination of the Boltzmann constant

Meriam Triki, Cyril Lemarchand, Benoît Darquié +4

In this paper we present an accurate analysis of the shape of an isolated rovibrational ammonia line from the strong nu2 band around 10 m, recorded by laser absorption spectrosc…
