Abstract: A system for a high resolution optical spectrum analyzer (OSA) using various optical configurations to reduce polarization dependent loss (PDL) is disclosed. The system may include a birefringent element to receive an input optical beam. The birefringent element may then split the optical beam into at least two exit beams. The system may also include an optical configuration comprising at least one optical element. The optical configuration may receive the at least two exit beams from the birefringent element and transform at least one of the two exit beams using the at least one optical element to provide two parallel beams with parallel polarizations. The optical configuration may then output the two parallel beams with parallel polarizations to a downstream optical element, such as a diffraction grating, or other optical element.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus and systems that relate to a low-cost reconfigurable polarimetric imaging are described. One example polarization imaging system includes a lens positioned to receive light reflected from one or more objects, and a spectral-polarization filter positioned at an aperture plane of the lens to filter the light received by the lens. The polarization imaging system can further include a sensor positioned to detect the filtered light from the spectral-polarization filter to form a polarization image of the one or more objects. The spectral-polarization filter comprises a first array of multiple spectral filters and a second array of multiple polarizers.

Abstract: An imaging assembly of a spectral imaging ellipsometer includes an analyzer configured to polarize reflected light reflected from a sample surface, an imaging mirror optical system disposed on an optical path of the reflected light passing through the analyzer and including a first mirror having a concave surface and a second mirror having a convex surface, and a light detector configured to receive light passing through the imaging mirror optical system to collect spectral data. The reflected light is firstly reflected by the first mirror, the firstly reflected light is secondarily reflected by the second mirror and travels toward the first mirror again, and then thirdly reflected by the first mirror to be imaged on a light receiving surface of the light detector.

Abstract: This relates to systems and methods for measuring a concentration and type of substance in a sample at a sampling interface. The systems can include a light source, optics, one or more modulators, a reference, a detector, and a controller. The systems and methods disclosed can be capable of accounting for drift originating from the light source, one or more optics, and the detector by sharing one or more components between different measurement light paths. Additionally, the systems can be capable of differentiating between different types of drift and eliminating erroneous measurements due to stray light with the placement of one or more modulators between the light source and the sample or reference. Furthermore, the systems can be capable of detecting the substance along various locations and depths within the sample by mapping a detector pixel and a microoptics to the location and depth in the sample.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device comprising a beam splitter and a method of using the device. The device comprises a beam emitting unit and a downstream beam splitter, which is formed by two adjacent planar plates of different materials. For a specified wavelength range of an optical beam from which a partial beam is to be coupled out by reflection, the material of the first planar plate has a minimum refractive index which is greater by a refractive index interval than the maximum refractive index of the material of the second planar plate. From the optical beam, which, collimated and linearly polarized parallel to a plane of incidence, impinges on the beam splitter at a certain angle of incidence, the partial beam having only a small summary percentage of the optical beam and a small spectral fluctuation range is coupled out.
