DOI: 0.1007/s00340-014-5883-1http://nur.nu.edu.kz/handle/123456789/2231We report on absolute line strength measurements of P(1), R(0) and R(1) singlet lines in the 3:3 μm ν3 (C–H stretching) band of methane 12CH4 at referencetemperature T = 296 K. Line strength measurements are performed at low pressure (P <1 Torr) using direct absorption spectroscopy technique based on a widely tunable continuous-wave singly resonant optical parametric oscillator. The 1σ overall accuracy in line strength determinations ranges between 7 and 8 % mostly limited by pressure and frequency measurements. A comparison with previous reported values is made. Our results show good agreement with the HITRAN 2012 database.enAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 United Statesmethaneoptical parametric oscillatorsabsorption spectroscopyLine intensity measurements of methane’s ν3-band using a cw-OPOArticle
