The rotational Raman LIDAR technique has been used to accurately measure aerosol optical properties such as backscatter coefficient, extinction coefficient, and LIDAR ratio. In the case of the vibrational Raman technique, the ${\AA}$ngstr$\ddot{o}$om exponent, which has wavelength dependence on the particle properties, is assumed to obtain the extinction coefficient. However, this assumed ${\AA}$ngstr$\ddot{o}$m exponent can cause systematic errors in retrieving aerosol optical properties. In the case of the rotational Raman technique, the aerosol optical properties can be measured without any assumptions about the ${\AA}$ngstr$\ddot{o}$m exponent. In this paper, the LIDAR ratio was measured by using the rotational Raman LIDAR and vibrational Raman LIDAR in the troposphere. And, the LIDAR ratios measured by these two methods were compared.

라이다 방법을 이용한 대기의 온도 측정은 크게 1) DIAL 방법을 이용하는 방법 2) 공기분자의 밀도를 측정하는 진동 라만 산란을 이용하는 방법 3)공기분자의 회전 라만 산란을 이용하는 방법 4) Rayleigh 산란의 선폭을 이용하는 방법 등으로 나누어진다. 이 중에서 대류권의 온도 측정에 적용가능한 방법은 3 번째의 방법으로 질소나 산소의 회전 라만 산란(RRS:Rotational Raman Scattering)이 가장 흔히 사용되는 기술이다. 질소와 산소의 회전 라만 신호를 이용한 온도 측정 기술은 Cohen$^1$ 등에 의하여 처음 시도되었으며, 그 후 많은 사람들에 의하여 검증되었다.$^2$ (중략)

The temperature profiles of gas phase and the concentration profiles of GaN precursors in an inverted OMVPE reactor have been carried out by in-situ Raman spectroscopy. Pure rotational Raman scattering from the carrier gas (rd) was used to determine the temperature profiles in the reactor, and a large temperature gradient perpendicular the susceptor surface was observed. The homogeneous gas phase decompositions of the OMVPE precursors were investigated by the vibrational Raman spectra, and it was found that the pyrolyses of $NH_3$ and TMGa begin above 800 K and 650 K, respectively, but a noticeable amount of precursors remain undecomposed even in the region very close to the susceptor.

We have developed a daytime measuring rotational Raman LIDAR system for temperature measurement. To decrease the background signal from sunlight, we have designed and installed narrow band (0.5 nm) and high rejection ($10^{-6}$) rate band pass filter system using a grating and an interference filter. We calibrated our system by comparing our horizontal temperature profile and KMA (Korea Meteorological Administration) data. We have found that our temperature profile has a good correlation with KMA data within our theoretically expected variance. And we have used these calibration values in obtaining a vertical temperature distribution. To check our system, we also have compared our vertical temperature data with US standard atmospheric temperature profile. We also have compared our temperature profile with sonde data.

Aerosol size distribution provides good information for predicting weather changes and understanding cloud formation. Aerosol extinction coefficient and backscattering coefficient are measured by many scientists, but these parameters depend not only on aerosol size but on aerosol concentrations. An algorithm has been developed to measure aerosol parameters such as ${\AA}$ngstr$\ddot{o}$m exponent, color ratio, and LIDAR ratio without any assumptions by using two wavelength rotational Raman LIDAR signals. These parameters are good indicators for the aerosol size. And we can find ${\AA}$ngstr$\ddot{o}$m exponent, color ratio, and LIDAR ratio under various weather conditions. Finally, it can be seen that the ${\AA}$ngstr$\ddot{o}$m exponent has an inverse relationship to the particle size of the aerosol and the color ratio is linearly dependent on the aerosol size. An ${\AA}$ngstr$\ddot{o}$m exponent from 1.2 to 3.1, a color ratio from 0.28 to 1.04, and a LIDAR ratio 66.9 sr at 355 nm and 32.6 sr at 532 nm near the cloud were obtained.

An inverted, stagnation point flow OMVPE reactor was studied by laser Raman spectroscopy. Pure rotational Raman scattering by the carrier gas $(N_2; or; H_2)$ was used to determine the axial centerline temperature profile in the reactor as a function of the inlet flow velocity and the rector aspect ratio. A larger temperature gradient normal to the susceptor surface was obtained with higher gas glow velocity, larger aspect ratio, and the use of a $N_2$ carrier gas.

Anisotropic rotation of C$_{6}$F$_{6}$ in neat liquid is investigated by the analysis of the ν$_{1}$ and ν$_{15}$ (both C-F stretching) bands of Raman spectrum and diffusion constants for the spinning (D$_{II}$) and tumbling (D$_{⊥}$) motions are obtained by the rotational dffusion theory. The same analysis is also carried out for the ν$_{2}$ and ν$_{16}$ (both C-C stretching) bands and both results are compared with the results obtained for benzene in neat liquid. The results show that the reorientation of C$_{6}$F$_{6}$ is highly anisotropic and the anisotropy is greater for C$_{6}$F$_{6}$ than benzene. This is due to the fact that the spinning rate is about the same but the tumbling rate is sharply reduced for C$_{6}$F$_{6}$.

대기과학분야에서 대기의 온도는 풍향-풍속과 더불어 매우 중요한 기상파라메타로 사용되고 있다. 수직고도에 따른 온도의 변화는 대기의 안정도를 결정하기도하며 구름의 생성과 소멸에 직접적인 변수가 되기도 한다. 원격으로 온도를 측정하는 기술 중에서 가장 보편적으로 사용되는 방법은 산소나 질소의 회전 라만 신호를 이용하는 기술이다 이 방법은 Cooney에 의하여 최초로 시도되었는데, 온도에 따라 민감하게 변하는 두 개의 회전천이 스펙트럼을 측정함으로써 이루어진다. (중략)

To measure atmospheric temperature, water vapor, and aerosol simultaneously, an efficient multi-function Raman lidar using an ultraviolet-wavelength laser has been developed. A high-performance spectroscopic box that utilizes multicavity interference filters, mounted sequentially at small angles of incidence, is used to separate the lidar return signals at different wavelengths, and to extract the signals with high efficiency. The external experiments are carried out for simultaneous detection of atmospheric temperature, water vapor, and aerosol extinction coefficient in Beijing, under clear and hazy weather conditions. The vertical profiles of temperature, water vapor, and aerosol extinction coefficient are analyzed. The results show that for an integration time of 5 min and laser energy of 200 mJ, the mean deviation between measurements obtained by lidar and radiosonde is small, and the overall trend is similar. The statistical temperature error for nighttime is below 1 K up to a height of 6.2 km under clear weather conditions, and up to a height of 2.5 km under slightly hazy weather conditions, with 5 min of observation time. An effective range for simultaneous detection of temperature and water vapor of up to 10 km is achieved. The temperature-inversion layer is found in the low troposphere. Continuous observations verify the reliability of Raman lidar to achieve real-time measurement of atmospheric parameters in the troposphere.
