1. A sensing apparatus comprising:

  • a processor and a memory having data representative of plurality of polarizability values for a plurality of common air pollutants and said memory having a selection algorithm;

    a laser;

    a based whispering gallery mode micro-resonator;

    a coupling medium configured to transition the tunable laser in and out resonance modes;

    a photodetector configured to detect a laser signal output at an output port of the coupling waveguide and said photodetector having a detector output signal representative of the detected laser signal output; and

    said processor configured to process the selection algorithm to analyze a transmission spectra of the detector output signal, thereby deriving a detected polarizability value and selecting a matching polarizability value from the plurality of polarizability values.
