<p>A method is disclosed of determining a rate of decay of fluorescent light emitted from a photoluminescent material in operative communication with substance having a property. The fluorescent light is emitted in response to stimulation of the photoluminescent material by a pulse of stimulation light. The rate of decay is correlated with a value of the property of the substance. The method includes receiving a data signal produced in response to receipt of the fluorescent light, and applying a weighting function to the data signal to produce a weighted data signal. The method also includes calculating a rate of decay from the weighted data signal.</p> |
