  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. We report on the current status of our work concerning the development of new optical sensors for the measurement of hydroxyl (OH), nitric :oxide (NO) and,carbon monoxide (CO). These sensors will be used for optical absorption measurements in the exhaust streams of combustion systems such as incinerators, furnaces, or gas turbine combustors. No physical sampling probe will be required.
