ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a method and apparatus for determining the presence and/or concentration of chemical species which absorb electromagnetic energy, dependent to a degree upon the chemical species and the wavelength of electromagnetic energy applied to matter including said species. The absorbed electromagnetic energy generates acoustic energy which is detected and analyzed to determine the presence and/or concentration of the chemical species in the matter.
