ABSTRACT
Laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) is an established noninvasive measurement method to determine temperature distributions and local gas concentrations in combustion processes with high spatial and temporal resolution. This work presents high-precision LIF spectra of acetone and other tracers at ambient conditions. By using a large UV-sensitive sCMOS camera instead of an image intensified camera, many issues like nonlinearity, varying sensitivity, vignetting, limited resolution etc. could be minimized or eliminated. Particular care was taken to remove residual stray light and to calibrate the spectra with metrological traceability to the International System of Units SI.
