A simple piezoelectric detection system suitable for performing highly sensitive liquid-phase photoacoustic spectroscopy is presented. Performance of the system with respect to linearity, solvent effects, and excitation pulse characteristics is experimentally evaluated and compared with theoretical figures of merit. Limits of detection for various porphyrins, laser dyes, and drugs are presented.
