-| Ultraviolet Photometry | Operates on the principle that a specific species efficiently absorbs light at a known wavelength in the UV range. This is the case for ozone, at 253.65nm. The degree to which the UV light is absorbed by a specific species is directly related to the species concentration as described by the Beer-Lambert Law (I/Io = e−KLC; K = molecular absorption coefficient at STP (308 cm-1 atm-1 for O3), L = optical path length of cell, C = species concentration , I = light intensity of sample gas, Io = light intensity of sample without measured species (reference gas) ) | Gaseous hydrocarbons with strong absorption at 254 nm, such as aromatic hydrocarbons (i.e., benzene and substituted benzene rings)| O3 |

 | Visible Photometry | Operates on the principle that a specific species efficiently absorbs light at a known wavelength in the visible range. This is the case for NO2, at 405nm. The degree to which the visible light is absorbed by a specific species is directly related to the species concentration as described by the Beer-Lambert Law (C = 1/Lσ * ln(Io/I) ; σ = absorption cross section (6.06×10-19 cm2 molec-1 for NO2 at 405nm), L = optical path length of cell, C = species concentration , I = light intensity of sample gas, Io = light intensity of sample without measured species (reference gas) ). | Water vapour, small particles (< 5 um) | |
 | Ethylene Chemiluminescence | Chemiluminescence is the emission of light (luminescence), as the result of a chemical reaction. Chemiluminescence occurs as a result of the reaction of ozone with ethylene, leading to an excited molecule. The return to a fundamental electronic state of the excited molecules is made by luminous radiation in a specific spectrum, which can be measured. The concentration of sample ozone is directly proportional to the intensity of light emitted. The broadband emission is detected using a photomultiplier tube (at 440 nm for ethylene + ozone). | Water vapour | |
 | Eosin-Y Chemiluminescence | Chemiluminescence is the emission of light (luminescence), as the result of a chemical reaction. Chemiluminescence occurs as a result of the reaction of ozone with eosin-Y, leading to an excited molecule. The return to a fundamental electronic state of the excited molecules is made by luminous radiation in a specific spectrum, which can be measured. The concentration of sample ozone is directly proportional to the intensity of light emitted. The broadband emission is detected using a photomultiplier tube (at ~560 nm for eosin-Y + ozone). | Water vapour | |
