A miniaturized optical fiber photoacoustic gas sensor enhanced by dense multibutterfly spots is reported for the first time. The principle of space light transmission of neglecting paraxial approximation is theoretically analyzed for designing a dense multibutterfly spots-based miniature multipass cell. In a multipass photoacoustic tube with a diameter of 16 mm, the light beam is reflected about a hundred times. The light spots on the mirror surfaces at both ends of the photoacoustic tube form a dense multibutterfly distribution. The volume of the micro multipass gas chamber is only 5.3 mL. An optical fiber cantilever based on F-P interference is utilized as a photoacoustic pressure detector. Compared with that of the single-pass structure, the gas detection ability of the photoacoustic system with dense multibutterfly spots is improved by about 50 times. The proposed miniaturized sensor realizes a detection limit of 3.4 ppb for C2H2 gas with an averaging time of 100 s. The recognized coefficients of minimum detectable absorption (αmin) and normalized noise equivalent absorption are 1.9 × 10-8 cm-1 and 8.4 × 10-10 W cm-1 Hz-1/2, respectively.
