A bent capillary flow cell with protruding end bulbs coaxial with centerline of an elongated center cylindrical section of capillary tubing. The bulbs provide a high light throughput entrance window for the cell. Light is piped along the elongated center section by total internal reflection at the outside surface of the cell wall. An external light absorbing band is placed in optical contact with outer surface of the cell wall over a transition cone region between the bulb and center cylindrical section of the cell. Each of the external light absorbing bands extend a short prescribed distance over the cylindrical wall to absorb light rays that would otherwise be light piped within the cell wall and have little exposure to the liquid in the cell. |
