Description/Abstract
Sensing of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as alcohols, ketones and amines is required within a diverse set of fields including industrial chemical processes, environmental monitoring/clean-up operations and homeland security. The sensing of VOCs can be achieved through the use of both electronic sensors and optical sensors. Optical sensors demonstrate many benefits over electronic sensors, including remote interrogation of large arrays via optical fibre over many tens or hundreds of kilometres, immunity to electromagnetic interference and most importantly the absence of spark risk in flammable environments.
