The design and realization of two highly sensitive and easily interchangeable spectrophones based on custom quartz tuning forks, with a rectangular (S-1) or T-shaped (S-2) prongs geometry, is reported. The two spectrophones have been implemented in a QEPAS sensor for ethylene detection, employing a DFB-QCL emitting at 10.337 mu m with an optical power of 74.2 mW. A comparison between their performances showed a signal-to-noise ratio 3.4 times higher when implementing the S-2 spectrophone. For the S-2-based sensor, a linear dependence of the QEPAS signal on ethylene concentration was demonstrated in the 5 ppm - 100 ppm range. For a 10 s lock-in integration time, an ethylene minimum detection limit of 10 ppb was calculated. (C) 2019 Optical Society of America under the terms of the OSA Open Access Publishing Agreement
