ABSTRACT:
A reservoir fiber optic chemical sensor (FOCS) is formed of a modular cell body. A fiber optic is attached using a quick connect standard fiber optic connector. A semipermeable membrane is attached at the opposite end of the cell body using a quick attach membrane retainer. Multiple sensors can be made uniformly. Specific sensors for TCE vapor, O.sub.2 and CO.sub.2 are produced by utilizing a suitable reaction chemistry in the cell. A non-imaging optical focusing element can be included in the cell to increase sensitivity. A reaction cell can be placed adjacent to the reservoir cell with the semi-permeable membrane separating the two cells to produce a photolysis FOCS. TOC and TOCl can be detected with the photolysis FOCS.
