摘要:
An optical element may include a first diffractive structure having a radially symmetric amplitude function and a second diffractive structure having a phase function. The second diffractive structure may serve as a vortex lens. A system employing the optical element may include a light source and/or a detector.

A spectrometer for use with a desired wavelength range includes an array of filters. Each filter outputs at least two non-contiguous wavelength peaks within the desired wavelength range. The array of filters is spectrally diverse over the desired wavelength range, and each filter in the array of filters outputs a spectrum of a first resolution. An array of detectors has a detector for receiving an output of a corresponding filter. A processor receives signals from each detector, and outputs a reconstructed spectrum having a second resolution, the second resolution being higher than any of the first resolution of each filter. Filters and detectors may be arranged into a plurality of imaging units, each imaging unit including first and second filters and first and second photosensing regions. A processor receives signals from each imaging unit, and generates a reconstructed spatial image comprised of discrete spatial units corresponding to each imaging unit.

An assembly for an image capturing device may include a blade configured to pass light without modification when in a first position and, when in a second position, provide one of an aperture blocking a portion of the light, a low power lens, and a transparent film, and an actuator configured to move the blade between the first and second positions.

A method for forming a camera including an integrated optical subsystem, includes aligning a plurality of second dies with a plurality of first dies, each first die having a second die aligned therewith, at least one of the plurality of first dies and the plurality of the second dies include a corresponding number of optical elements, securing aligned dies, and dividing secured aligned dies into a plurality of portions, a portion containing a first die, a second die and at least one optical element, thereby forming the integrated optical subsystem.
