    Abstract: An improved detector assembly 10 having decreased sensitivity both to Narcissism and to stray light ghosting is disclosed herein. The improved detector assembly 10 of the present invention includes a housing 70 having an input aperture 142 in communication with a chamber within said housing. A detector 130 for sensing electromagnetic energy passing through the input aperture 142 within a first field of view is mounted within the chamber. Also mounted within the chamber is a detector mirror 100 for reflecting energy passing through the input aperture 142 within a second field of view outside of the first field of view. The improved assembly 10 of the present invention further includes a second mirror 110 mounted within the chamber for reflecting energy reflected by the first mirror 100 through the input aperture 142.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a simple, robust, and versatile high-resolution spectrometer that is suitable for downhole use. The present invention provides a method and apparatus incorporating a spinning, oscillating or stepping optical interference filter to change the angle at which light passes through the filters after passing through a sample under analysis downhole. As each filter is tilted, the color or wavelength of light passed by the filter changes. Black plates are placed between the filters to isolate each filter's photodiode. The spectrometer of the present invention is suitable for use with a wire line formation tester, such as the Baker Atlas Reservation Characterization Instrument to provide supplemental analysis and monitoring of sample clean up. The present invention is also suitable for deployment in a monitoring while drilling environment. The present invention provides a high resolution spectometer which enables quantification of a crude oil's percentage of aromatics, olefins, and saturates to estimate a sample's gas oil ratio (GOR). Gases such as CO2 are also detectable. The percentage of oil-based mud filtrate contamination in a crude oil sample can be estimated with the present invention by using a suitable training set and chemometrics, a neural network, or other type of correlation method.

    Abstract: Concentric spectrometers are plagued with internal reflections due to inherent nature of more than one optical surface possessing a common center of curvature. Reflections from optical surfaces arise when there is a difference or change in the refractive index of the media in which an optical beam or ray of a given wavelength is propagating. Internal reflections in concentric optical systems can produce a myriad of undesirable optical phenomenon at the image plane such as multiple images of an object, interference fringes, and stray light. As a result a loss in contrast or detection limit arise from such phenomenon in which light or detectable radiation that impinges on the image plane does not add to the formation of the intended image, (stray light). The present invention produces high quality images without the optical phenomenon(s) that arise from internal reflections by removing the reflected radiation from propagating through the optical system.

    Abstract: Described is a device (16) for the selection and detection of at least two spectral regions in a beam of light (14), the device including a selection unit (25) and a detection unit (26). To ensure reliable simultaneous selection and detection of different spectral regions plus high yield and simplest possible construction, the device is designed such that the selection unit (25) comprises means (27) for splitting the light beam (14) up into its spectral components and means (28) for not only masking off a first spectral region (29) but also reflecting at least part (30) of the spectral region which is not masked off, and the detection unit (26) comprises a first detector (31) located in the path of the light in the masked-off first spectral region (29) and a second detector (32) located in the path of the light of the reflected spectral region (30).
