Abstract:
The present invention relates to a semiconductor processing system that employs infrared-based thermopile detector for process control, by analyzing a material of interest, based on absorption of infrared light at a characteristic wavelength by such material. Specifically, an infrared light beam is transmitted through a linear transmission path from an infrared light source through a sampling region containing material of interest into the thermopile detector. The linear transmission path reduces the risk of signal loss during transmission of the infrared light. The transmission path of the infrared light may comprise a highly smooth and reflective inner surface for minimizing such signal loss during transmission.
Abstract:
A system, wearable device, and method include a light emitter configured to emit light at a first wavelength of between approximately 900 and 1000 nanometers and at a second wavelength of approximately 1350 nanometers, a first light detector spaced at a first distance from the light emitter, and a second light detector spaced at a second distance from the light emitter, the second distance approximately twice the first distance. At least one of hydration and glycogen of muscle tissue is determinable based on a relationship between backscatter light from the muscle tissue as detected by the second light detector and backscatter light from non-muscle tissue as detected by the first light detector.
Abstract:
Le dispositif de détection multispectrale comporte des premier et deuxième photodétecteurs (1a, 1b) sensibles à deux longueurs d'onde différentes. Les deux photodétecteurs sont connectés à deux condensateurs d'intégration de deux circuits de lecture différents. Deux circuits de remise à zéro (5a, 5b) sont configurés de manière à initialiser séparément les deux condensateurs d'intégration (3a, 3b). Un premier circuit de synchronisation (7a) est connecté au premier circuit de lecture (2a) et aux générateurs de signal de synchronisation et de signal d'horloge (8, 9). Le premier circuit de synchronisation (7a) est configuré de manière à o définir la trame par détection d'un front montant du signal de synchronisation (SYNC), o compter le nombre d'occurrences d'un front descendant du signal d'horloge (CLK), o initier ou arrêter une phase d'acquisition de données lorsque le nombre d'occurrences de fronts descendant est égal à une valeur seuil enregistrée dans un registre (10) du premier circuit de synchronisation (7a).
Abstract:
A spectroscopic method and spectroscopy system therefrom for analyzing samples. A sample includes a first chemical component that has a characteristic first absorption peak is provided. The sample is irradiated in a measurement waveband proximate to the first absorption peak, and at a first and a second reference waveband where the first chemical component lacks characteristic absorption features. Reflected or transmitted detection data is obtained including a measured power proximate to the first absorption peak and first and second reference powers at the reference wavebands. A plurality of different waveband ratios are evaluated using pairs of detection data to generate a plurality of measured waveband ratio values. A parameter of the first chemical component is then determined by evaluating a multidimensional polynomial calibration equation that relates the parameter of the first chemical component to the plurality of different waveband ratios by substituting the measured waveband ratio values into the calibration relation.
