    Abstract: Systems, tools, and methods are presented for processing a plurality of spectral ranges from an electromagnetic radiation that has been interacted with a fluid. Each spectral range within the plurality corresponds to a property of the fluid or a constituent therein. In one instance, a series of spectral analyzers, each including an integrated computational element coupled to an optical transducer, forms a monolithic structure to receive interacted electromagnetic radiation from the fluid. Each spectral analyzer is configured to process one of the plurality of spectral ranges. The series is ordered so spectral ranges are processed progressively from shortest wavelengths to longest wavelengths as interacted electromagnetic radiation propagates therethrough. Other systems, tools, and methods are presented.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit for an imaging device including an array of photo-sensitive areas is disclosed. In one aspect the integrated circuit includes a first multi-layer structure and a second multi-layer structure arranged over a first and a second photo-sensitive area, respectively. The second multi-layer structures each have a bottom and a top reflective structure and a spacer layer arranged therebetween. The spacer layer has a thickness such that the multi-layer structure selectively transmits a narrow range of wavelengths of electro-magnetic radiation. The bottom and top reflective structures include a stack of alternating layers of a first and a second material. Thickness and/or material of the alternating layers of the first multi-layer structure differ from thickness and/or material of the alternating layers of the second multi-layer structure.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit for an imaging system is disclosed. In one aspect, an integrated circuit has an array of optical sensors, an array of optical filters integrated with the sensors and configured to pass a band of wavelengths onto one or more of the sensors, and read out circuitry to read out pixel values from the sensors to represent an image. Different ones of the optical filters are configured to have a different thickness, to pass different bands of wavelengths by means of interference, and to allow detection of a spectrum of wavelengths. The read out circuitry can enable multiple pixels under one optical filter to be read out in parallel. The thicknesses may vary non-monotonically across the array. The read out, or later image processing, may involve selection or interpolation between wavelengths, to carry out spectral sampling or shifting, to compensate for thickness errors.
