Water-vapor absorption database using Dual Comb Spectroscopy from 300 to 1300 K Part II: Air-Broadened H2O, 6600 to 7650 cm−1

We present broadband dual frequency comb laser absorption measurements of 2 % H₂O (natural isotopic abundance of 99.7 % H₂¹⁶O) in air from 6600 to 7650 cm⁻¹ (1307–1515 nm) with a spectral point spacing of 0.0068 cm⁻¹. Twenty-nine datasets were collected at temperatures between 300 and 1300 K (±0.82 % average uncertainty) and pressures ranging from 20 to 600 Torr (±0.25 %) with an average residual absorbance noise of 8.0E-4 across the spectrum for all measurements. We fit measurements using a quadratic speed-dependent Voigt profile to determine 7088 absorption parameters for 3366 individual transitions found in HITRAN2020. These measurements build on the line strength, line center, self-broadening, and self-shift parameters determined in the Part I companion of this work. Here we measure air-broadened width (with temperature- and speed-dependence) and air pressure shift (with temperature-dependence) parameters. Various trends are explored for extrapolation to weak transitions that were not covered in this work. Improvements made in this work are predominantly due to the inclusion of air pressure shift temperature dependence values. In aggregate, these updates improved RMS absorbance error by a factor of 4.2 on average, and the remaining residual is predominantly spectral noise. This updated database improves high-temperature spectroscopic knowledge across the 6600-7650 cm⁻¹ region of H₂O absorption.
