Abstract

A photoacoustic spectrometer based on a three-colored light-emitting diode (with peak emission wavelengths of 465, 525, and 640 nm) designed to determine the intensity of photosynthesis in different deep layers of plant leaves is described. The physical properties of the photoacoustic signal were studied at different wavelengths and light modulation frequencies. It was shown that the proposed spectrometer can be employed for quantitative evaluation of heat dissipation and photochemical assimilation of the absorbed light energy in this medium.
