    Abstract: A composite body of radiation-transparent material, acting as an interferometer, comprises two closely juxtaposed prismatic bars of like refractive index contacting each other along a semireflecting interface which bisects a right angle between two outer bar surfaces. One of these orthogonally adjoining surfaces constitutes an entrance side for incident radiation to be split into two components at the diagonally extending interface, the other of these surfaces representing an exit side for such radiation. The throughgoing radiant component is redirected to the beam-splitting interface and thence to the exit side by a reflector at or just beyond a third prism surface parallel to the entrance side, the reflected component being returned to that interface by another reflector at or just beyond a fourth prism surface which diverges longitudinally from the exit side at a small angle whereby the path lengths of the two components differ in length by amounts varying over the length of the body. In an alternate embodiment, the beam-splitting internal surface and the reflecting surfaces are formed by structural elements separated from one another and from the entrance and exit sides by empty spaces, i.e. air gaps or evacuated zones, with a refractive index n 1.

    Abstract: A spectrometry device wherein light rays emitted from an object face measurement point combine into one parallel light beam by an objective lens, this is divided into a first and second light beam by a phase shifter, and the first and second light beam emit toward a light-receiving face of a photodetector while providing an optical path length difference. A light-shielding plate is arranged on a face optically conjugate the object face respective to the objective lens, and only light passed through translucent portions of the light-shielding plate is directed to the objective lens. A lateral length of each light-shielding plate translucent portion and the interval between two adjacent translucent portions are based on the objective lens focal length, the distance from the phase shifter to the photodetector light-receiving face, a photodetector pixel pitch, a pixel length, and a predetermined wavelength range of the light emitted from the measurement point.

    Abstract: This document describes techniques and devices for blood-solute calculation with a mobile device using non-invasive spectroscopy. A mobile device (502) includes a light source (504) that emits light toward an interferometer (508) that uses mirrors to separate and recombine the light. The interferometer directs the recombined light toward a person. Light reflected from, or transmitted through, the person is received through a reception port (506) to a photodetector (510) that outputs photodetector data that corresponds to a measured light intensity of the reflected and transmitted light as a function of a path length of the light or a mirror position of the interferometer. Based on the photodetector data, an interferogram is generated. Applying a technique such as a Fourier transform to the interferogram, a spectrum data set of the reflected and transmitted light is generated. Based on the spectrum data set, a concentration of solutes in the person's blood is calculated.

    Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed relating to a refractively-scanning interferometer comprising an aperture that receives an incident light beam at a receiving angle, a beam splitter configured to split the incident light beam into a first beam and a second beam, a first and a second reflector arranged to reflect the first beam and second beam, respectively, towards a combining optical element, and a refractive Optical Path Difference (rOPD) assembly interposed between the beam splitter and the first reflector, wherein the rOPD Assembly refracts the first light beam an even number of times with induced phase discrepancy being a vector sum of a first phase discrepancy induced by a first refraction and a second phase discrepancy induced by a second refraction, the rOPD Assembly being configured such that the first phase discrepancy is substantially opposite in direction to the second phase discrepancy, a portion of the first and second phase discrepancies cancelling one another out to decrease magnitude of the phase discrepancy.
