Abstract: Technologies are generally described for determination of a spectral profile of a sample. A microscope with spectroscopic capability may include a multitude of light sources, one or more photo detectors, and an analysis module. The microscope may be a table-top microscope or a hand-held microscope, for example. The light sources may be configured to illuminate at least one portion of the sample, the photo detectors may be configured to detect returned light from the sample in response to the illumination, and the analysis module may be configured to analyze the detected light to determine a spectral profile of the sample. In some examples, the spectral profile of the sample may be compared to a spectral profile of a reference sample to evaluate the sample, where the sample may be evaluated to determine an identity, a quality, an authenticity, a composition, a density, a reflectivity, and/or an amount of the sample.

Abstract: A spectrometer recognizes a measurement target on the basis of the spectral data set of observed light detected by a spectral sensor capable of measuring wavelength information and light intensity information. The spectrometer is provided with a spectral data processor. Spectral data sets are detected at two different positions by the spectral sensor, and the processor subtracts a first spectral data set from a second spectral data set, or divides the first spectral data set by the second spectral data set to calculate one phase correlation spectral data set, which is correlated to the spectral data sets at the two different positions. The processor simultaneously identifies the measurement target corresponding to the two different positions on the basis of the correlation spectral data set.

Abstract: A spatial heterodyne spectrometer may employ an integrated computational element (ICE) to obtain a measure of one or more fluid properties without requiring any moving parts, making it particularly suitable for use in a downhole environment.
