The instrument spans 361–389 and 438–468 nm, using two light emitting diodes (LEDs) and a grating spectrometer with a charge-coupled device (CCD) detector. Robust performance is achieved using a custom optical mounting system, high power LEDs with electronic on/off modulation, state-of-the-art cavity mirrors, and materials that minimize analyte surface losses. We have successfully deployed this instrument during two aircraft and two ground-based field campaigns to date. The demonstrated precision (2σ) for retrievals of CHOCHO, HONO and NO2 are 34, 350 and 80 pptv in 5 s. The accuracy is 5.8, 9.0 and 5.0 $\%$ limited mainly by the available absorption cross sections.}, cin = {IEK-8}, ddc = {550}, cid = {I:(DE-Juel1)IEK-8-20101013}, pnm = {243 - Tropospheric trace substances and their transformation processes (POF3-243)}, pid = {G:(DE-HGF)POF3-243}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, doi = {10.5194/amtd-8-11209-2015}, url = {https://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/279347}, }
