In order to improve the detection accuracy, make sure the wavelength of LD and absorption line of the detected gas is are in highly coincidence. The appropriate absorption spectrum and absorption range is are determined combining with the Lambert-Beer law and the theory of gas absorption lines. FPGA, as the main control chip, the sine Modulation modulation signals and triangular scanning signals are produced by a hardware driver driven circuit, which is set up with a steady current function. The experiment result shows that the system works well in locking wavelength. Current Stability is 2×10-2, and which makes sure that it is coincidence coincident with absorption line steadily. The wavelength of LD can be changed by changing the input current. This method can also be used in other gas detection, such as CH4, NO2 and so on.
