Principle of dynamic luminescence method:
Where:
I: Luminescence intensity in presence of oxygen
I
: Luminescence intensity in absence of oxygen
0
τ: Luminescence decay time in presence of oxygen
: Luminescence decay time in absence of oxygen
τ
0
KSV: Stern-Volmer constant (quantifies the quenching efficiency and
therefore the sensitivity of the sensor)
[O
]: Oxygen content

Principle of dynamic quenching of luminescence by molecular oxygen
(1) Luminescence process in absence of oxygen
(2) Deactivation of the luminescent indicator molecule by molecular oxygen
