    Abstract: An optical element may be fabricated by applying foreign or attenuating material, for example, a copper material or a material that includes copper, to a silicon dioxide thin film to form a layer that exhibits extraordinary optical absorption in the infrared wavelength region of at or about 2500-4700 nanometers. The foreign material may comprise or include a transition metal. The optical element exhibits increased accuracy and sensitivity in the infrared wavelength region of at or about 2500-4700 nanometers. The at or about 2500-4700 nanometers absorption property of the optical element can be selectively tuned to any region within this at or about 2500-4700 nanometers wavelength region. The optical element may comprise multiple layers of varying thicknesses to further tune the optical element to one or more spectral bands. Such an optical element may be utilized in a formation fluid analysis tool or an eye protection device.

    Abstract: Device for improving an optical detecting smoke apparatus and implementing thereof. Apparatus and methods for detecting the presence of smoke in a small, long-lasting smoke detector are disclosed. Specifically, the present disclosure shows how to build one or more optimized blocking members in a smoke detector to augment signal to noise ratio. This is performed while keeping the reflections from the housing structure to a very low value while satisfying all the other peripheral needs of fast response to smoke and preventing ambient light. This allows very small measurements of light scattering of the smoke particles to be reliable in a device resistant to the negative effects of dust. In particular, geometrical optical elements, e.g., cap and optical defection elements, are disclosed.

    Abstract: A gas concentration measurement device includes a waveguide including an entrance and an exit, a rotating member, first and second band pass filters on the rotating member and on a pair of planes that intersect each other, and a rotational driver. The rotating member is rotated by the rotational driver so that the first and second band pass filters are selectively located at a transmitting position. When a portion of the rotating member, the first band pass filter, or the second band pass filter, the portion having a maximum radius of gyration around a rotating shaft, is defined as a maximum radius portion, and when a rotation locus obtained by imaginarily rotating the maximum radius portion around the rotating shaft in a view along the rotating shaft is defined as a reference circle, the exit is located in the reference circle.

    Abstract: A device and method of use are provided for measuring the concentration of fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) in jet fuel to a limit of detection of 1 ppm. The device measures concentration of FAME in jet fuel via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) with a spectral resolution of 1 cm−1. The device can use an infrared light emitting diode (IR LED) and mercury cadmium telluride (MCT) detector in which the spectral output of the IR LED and the spectral response of the MCT detector is centered on the spectral absorbance of an ester bond, a defining spectral characteristic of FAME. Other IR LEDs with differing spectral outputs can be used to measure the presence and/or concentration of different analytes in different fluids.

    Abstract: The spectrophotometer of the present invention measures a spectral reflectance of an object to be measured to thereby determine a color value of the object to be measured based on a color-matching function of an XYZ color system and the spectral reflectance. The spectrophotometer includes an irradiation unit configured to irradiate the object to be measured with light having a spectral intensity distribution in which a relative intensity at a wavelength at which the value of z reaches its peak in the color-matching function is equal to or greater than 0.5.
