A spectroscopic sensor assembly for detecting at least one predefined analyte constituent of a measurement fluid, the sensor assembly including a sensor housing; a radiation source; a detector device; a barrier assembly, which is transmissive for measurement radiation and is impermeable to the analyte constituent; a polymer matrix, which absorbs and releases the analyte constituent; a reflector assembly, which has a signal side facing the polymer matrix and facing the barrier assembly; the reflector assembly has a passage extending through the reflector assembly, through which passage the analyte constituent is exchanged between a measurement environment and the polymer matrix, which polymer matrix is located on the signal side of the reflector assembly; the reflector assembly reflects incident measurement radiation back toward the apparatus portion; the sensor assembly having a spacing means different from the polymer matrix that is designed to prevent the reflector assembly from approaching the barrier assembly.

Sensor assembly for spectroscopically detecting substances

Described is an oxygen permeable layer for detection of molecular oxygen, wherein the layer has a carrier material in which at least one particle is comprised, wherein the carrier material is polyvinylidene fluoride or a copolymer of polyvinylidene fluoride, and the particle comprises a polymer or a copolymer, wherein the polymer or copolymer of the particle has a chemically covalently bonded indicator compound for detection of molecular oxygen. In addition, a multilayer system for detection of molecular oxygen is described. Also described are a method for producing the layer, and the use of the layer or of the multilayer system for detection of molecular oxygen.
