摘要

We propose a method that employs the ratios of the 2nd and 4th harmonics at the line center to measure line shape under low absorption conditions. To verify this method, the transition of CO2 at 6,982.0678 cm(-1) is selected to measure line shape by using the proposed method and direct absorption spectroscopy in laboratory conditions. The results from both methods have a high degree of consistency. This satisfactory agreement indicates the validity of the proposed method.
