Abstract
An optical multi-pass cell () including a sample cavity () is provided. The cell () also includes first and second end mirrors () positioned within the housing (). The mirrors () are configured to reflect a beam of light directed at one of the first or second end mirrors () off-axis from the optical axis () one or more times between the end mirrors () through the sample cavity () at a first distance from the optical axis () to create a first beam pattern (). The cell () also includes one or more relay minors () positioned to intercept reflect the beam of light such that at least a second beam pattern () is created between the end mirrors () at a distance from the optical axis () different from the first distance of the first beam pattern ().
