    Abstract: An integrated circuit for an imaging system is disclosed. In one aspect, an integrated circuit has an array of optical sensors, an array of optical filters integrated with the sensors and configured to pass a band of wavelengths onto one or more of the sensors, and read out circuitry to read out pixel values from the sensors to represent an image. Different ones of the optical filters are configured to have a different thickness, to pass different bands of wavelengths by means of interference, and to allow detection of a spectrum of wavelengths. The read out circuitry can enable multiple pixels under one optical filter to be read out in parallel. The thicknesses may vary non-monotonically across the array. The read out, or later image processing, may involve selection or interpolation between wavelengths, to carry out spectral sampling or shifting, to compensate for thickness errors.

    Abstract: A wavelength monitor/stabilizer for narrowly controlling the bandwidth of laser; the monitor/stabilizer uses parameters Q, F or G derived by measuring diameters of interference fringes given by the beam of the wavelength-controlled narrow bandwidth laser e.g. excimer laser and those given by the reference light e.g. of a mercury lamp. The controlling is made by controlling the parameter to be in a predetermined range. An image sensing unit for detecting the interference fringes are splitted into plural image sensors with adjustable distance for enabling more rapid measurement by skipping the in-between part.

    Abstract: An apparatus for the simultaneous detection of several ranges of wavelengths of polychromatic light radiation, using one detector for each detected range of wavelengths, includes an interference filter which filters the range of wavelengths to be detected out of the polychromatic light beam, and optical elements for guiding the polychromatic light beam to be detected. The optical elements include a first system of mirrors in the path of the incident polychromatic light beam for collimating it in a hollow-cylindrical manner, one mirror of the first system of mirrors being located at the center of the collimated light beam. The optical elements further include a second system of mirrors in the hollow-cylindrically collimated light beam that deflects this light essentially perpendicularly to the conceptual surface of the hollow cylinder and radially to the longitudinal axis of thereof. Photo-detectors associated with the particular deflection mirrors are mounted opposite the second system of mirrors to receive the deflected light. A common interference filter is mounted in the path of the beam between the deflecting mirrors and the photo-detectors, the deflecting mirrors and the associated photo-detectors being pivotable about the interference filter.

    Abstract: イメージングシステム用の集積回路が、光学センサアレイ(40)と、ある波長帯域を1つ又はそれ以上のセンサに向けて通過させるようにそれぞれ構成された光学フィルタアレイ(10)とを有する。 光学フィルタアレイは、センサアレイと一体化されている。 集積回路は、センサアレイから画素値を読み出して画像を表現する読み出し回路(30)を有する。 光学フィルタの異なるものが異なる厚さを有するように構成され、干渉を用いて異なる波長帯域を通過させて、波長スペクトルの検出を可能にしている。 読み出し回路は、1つの光学フィルタ下にある複数の画素が並列で読み出し可能である。 厚さは、アレイ全体で非単調的に変化してもよい。 読み出しまたは後の画像処理は、厚さ誤差を補償するために、スペクトルのサンプリングまたはシフト(shift)を実行する波長間の選択または補間(interpolation)を含んでもよい。
