Abstract

The analysis of weakly-absorbing media provides one of the most important application of laser OA instruments because of high sensitivity. In practice, it may be difficult to realize the ultimate sensitivity due to the influence of different background OA signals. So measures taken to reduce background signals may affect the choice of the scheme of measurements and of OA cell designs.
