MILLIMETER- AND SUBMILLIMETER-WAVE SPECTROMETERS ON THE BASIS OF DIRECT DIGITAL FREQUENCY SYNTHESIZERS

摘要

Two new spectrometers based on the direct digital frequency Synthesizers are presented. The Instruments are characterized by a high rate (up to WO GHz/hr) of molecular spectrum recording with a high accuracy of measuring transition frequencies (the measurement error for isolated spectral lines lies within ±0.002 MHz provided that the signal-to-noise ratio is 50 or greater). Frequency modulation of the radiation source is provided by direct digital frequency synthesizers that guarantees high stability and determinancy of frequency-modulated signal parameters and makes it possible to minimize the spectral lineshape distortions.
