The Laser Induced Fluorescence-Nitrogen Oxide (LIF-NO) is an airborne optical sensor operated by NOAA that detects nitric oxide (NO) in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere. It utilizes single-photon laser-induced fluorescence and employs a tunable laser at 1074-1076 nm to generate the fifth harmonic, near 215 nm, for NO detection. It has a sampling rate of 1 Hz, a detection limit of 1 pptv, and an accuracy of 9%.
