Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to develop an experiment to detect greenhouse effect in laboratory. The greenhouse effect is now known to play an important role in the global warming, but there aren’t appropriate experiments to reproduce it in laboratory. To realize the experiments, a material transparent over the visual to mid-infrared wavelengths is needed to confine the greenhouse effect gas. For this, we used rock salt to design a new experimental device, and we carried out an experiment to detect the greenhouse effect of carbon dioxide. We have obtained data indicative of detection of the greenhouse effect, but we cannot conclude so at the moment, because of the poor reproducibility mainly due to the vulnerability of the rock salt. The point of our device failure is apparent, and so we are now trying to improve it.
