      ReflectanceSpectral qualityExperimental effect of gas absorption cell
      50%Spectrum is broad, and there are multiple peaks, and intensity of each peak is not different, and effect is poorTransmittance is large, and absorption is poor
      85%Spectral width is narrow, and there are multiple peaks, and intensity of each peak varies greatly, and a main peak with large intensity appearsTransmittance becomes smaller, and there is still a gap with theoretical simulation
      75%Spectral width is narrow, with only one main peak with greater intensityIt is basically consistent with theoretical simulation data
