Width-increased dual-pump enhanced coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (WIDECARS) has been developed for spatially and temporally resolved simultaneous measurement of temperature and mole fraction of most major species in ethylene-air flames. This paper describes a method to infer coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy complex susceptibility distributions of the ν 3 band of ethylene from WIDECARS spectra measured in heated mixtures of ethylene and air, and to use such distributions to fit experimental WIDECARS spectra in an ethylene-air flame. The method is used to measure mole fraction ethylene in a dual-mode supersonic combustor burning premixed ethylene and air with single-laser-shot precision (one standard deviation) of ±0.0025 (absolute).
