Abstract: A photonic system includes a light source and a photonic structure. The photonic structure includes an optical transmission structure and an optical absorption structure. The optical transmission structure is configured to transmit light associated with a first wavelength range. The optical absorption structure is configured to absorb light associated with a second wavelength range. The light source is configured to provide a light beam with a wavelength that is within the second wavelength range to the optical absorption structure. The optical absorption structure is configured to generate and provide heat to the optical transmission structure when the light beam falls incident on the optical absorption structure.

Abstract: An optical device may include an optical filter disposed over a first surface of one or more substrates. The optical filter may include an aperture and may be configured to pass light that is received via the aperture and that is associated with one or more wavelength ranges via the one or more substrates based on an angle of incidence of the light on the optical filter. The optical device may include one or more optical elements disposed over a second surface of the one or more substrates that are configured to direct light beams of the light that are associated with a particular wavelength range, of the one or more wavelength ranges, to a particular set of sensor elements of an optical sensor. The optical filter may include a thin film optical interference filter and the one or more optical elements may include one or more metamaterial structures.

Abstract: In some implementations, an optical device may include an aperture, one or more optical elements, an optical filter, and an optical sensor. The aperture may be configured to receive light. The one or more optical elements may be configured to diffuse the light received by the aperture, direct the diffused light to the optical filter via a folded optical path, wherein a length of the folded optical path is greater than a distance between the aperture and an input surface of the optical filter, and cause the diffused light to be distributed across the input surface of the optical filter. The optical filter may be configured to filter the diffused light distributed across the input surface of the optical filter to pass portions of the diffused light associated with one or more wavelengths to the optical sensor.

Abstract: An optical system includes an optical element and an optical filter with a first set of channels and a second set of channels respectively associated with a first region and a second region of the optical filter. The optical element causes first light beams and second light beams associated with a subject to respectively fall incident on the first region within a first incidence angle range and on the second region within a second incidence angle range. A first channel, of the first set of channels, passes, based on the first incidence angle range, a set of the first light beams that are associated with a first subrange of a particular wavelength range. A second channel, of the second set of channels, passes, based on the second incidence angle range, a set of the second light beams that are associated with a second subrange of the particular wavelength range.
