A method for estimating a property of a fluid downhole is disclosed, the method including but not limited to exposing the fluid to light downhole; directing different wavelengths of light that have interacted with the fluid light toward a first optical grating; measuring light at different wavelengths reflected from the first optical grating; and estimating a property of the fluid from the measured light. An apparatus for estimating a property of a fluid downhole is disclosed, the apparatus including but not limited to a downhole tool for estimating a property of a fluid downhole, including but not limited to a light source that illuminates the fluid downhole; a first optical grating having a plurality of elements that selectively light that have interacted with the fluid; and a sensor that measures the light reflected from the first optical grating elements. |
