In the drawings, like reference numbers indicate identical or functionally similar elements. Although various aspects of the embodiments are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale unless specifically indicated.
The word "exemplary" is used herein to mean "serving as an example, embodiment, or illustration. Any embodiment described herein as "exemplary" is not necessarily to be construed as preferred or advantageous over other embodiments.
In addition, numerous specific details are set forth in the following detailed description in order to provide a better understanding of the present disclosure. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the present disclosure may be practiced without some of these specific details. In some instances, methods, means, elements, and circuits well known to those skilled in the art have not been described in detail in order not to obscure the present disclosure.
In order to facilitate understanding of the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure by those skilled in the art, a technical environment in which the technical solutions are implemented is described below.
Near infrared spectroscopy is an important type of non-contact spectroscopic analysis device. The traditional near infrared spectrometer mainly uses desk-top equipment for laboratories, which is widely used in various spectrum inspection laboratories, but the desk-top spectrum equipment has higher cost and larger volume, and limits the use of near infrared spectrum analysis in mobile measurement and in-situ detection scenes. At present, miniaturization of spectrum equipment can be realized based on a micro-nano preparation method, so that the application scene of a near infrared spectrum technology is further expanded, but a new bottleneck exists, for example, a small entrance slit or a longer propagation optical path is required for realizing high spectrum resolution of a dispersion type spectrometer, and the light quantity is reduced or the volume is increased; the filter spectrometer requires more wavelength selective units to achieve high spectral resolution, which reduces the overall energy utilization; the response speed of the fourier transform spectrometer becomes slow while achieving high spectral resolution.
Under the contradictory background of small volume and high performance, a computational reconstruction spectrum measurement method is gradually developed in recent years, but the current spectrometer in the industry has the defects that once a certain design is failed in test, the design, the processing and the performance of the spectrometer are required to be re-tested, which occupies a great deal of resources for research and development, and the cost is too high to design a spectrometer for a spectrum selection state, so that the spectrometer is not suitable for large-scale popularization.
The above reasons lead to the fact that the existing spectrometer cannot meet the requirement of increasingly amplified spectrum performance diversification, so that the research of the spectrometer with small volume, high performance and application flexibility is of great significance.
According to the spectrometer provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, different optical characteristics can be obtained by adjusting the spectrum selection chip, different light modulation effects are generated on light incident on the spectrum selection chip, spectrum data of incident light can be accurately restored in real time by combining the spectrum restoration module, more spectrum selection states can be obtained without redesigning the spectrometer, so that various spectrum detection requirements are met, and high efficiency and reliability are guaranteed.
Fig. 1 shows a schematic structural diagram of a spectrometer provided according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 1, the spectrometer 1 may include a spectrum selection chip 101, a detector 102, and a spectrum reduction module 103.
The spectrum selection chip 101 shown in fig. 1 may be configured to dynamically modulate light of the first incident light based on an externally input driving signal. The drive signal may be used to control the spectral selection chip to adjust to the first optical characteristic. The first incident light may be probe light to be analyzed by the spectrometer. The first optical characteristic may represent any one of optical characteristics. The first optical characteristic may include a reflection (may be expressed as reflectivity) or a transmission (may be expressed as transmissivity) of the detection light by the spectrum selection chip. Under control of the driving signal, the optical characteristics (i.e., reflectivity or transmissivity) of the spectrum selection chip may change, so that the spectrum selection chip can dynamically modulate the first incident light. For example, when the driving signal controls the spectrum selection chip to adjust to the first optical characteristic, the reflectivity of the spectrum selection chip to the detection light may become the reflectivity of the first optical characteristic or the transmissivity to the detection light may become the transmissivity of the first optical characteristic, thereby realizing dynamic optical modulation to the first incident light. Therefore, by adjusting the spectrum selection chip to different optical characteristics, different light modulation effects can be generated on the light incident on the spectrum selection chip, more spectrum response states can be obtained without redesigning the spectrometer, and thus new spectrum detection requirements are met, and the spectrum detection device has more flexibility.
The lens may be selectively configured for the spectrometer depending on the functional configuration of the spectral selection chip. If the spectrum selection chip can ensure that the detection light to be analyzed is incident to the spectrum selection chip so as to ensure effective execution of subsequent work, the configuration of a lens can be omitted for the spectrometer, so that the volume of the spectrometer can be reduced. If the receiving condition of the detection light to be analyzed by the spectrum selection chip cannot ensure the effective execution of the subsequent work, the spectrometer can further comprise a lens, wherein the lens is matched with the spectrum selection chip and is configured to ensure that the light of the target detection area is incident to the spectrum selection chip. According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the light of the target detection area is collected through the lens, and the detection light to be analyzed can be enabled to be incident to the spectrum selection chip according to the requirement, so that the ordered and efficient execution of the subsequent dynamic modulation is ensured.
The spectral selection chip 101 shown in fig. 1 may be a transmission type spectral selection chip or a reflection type spectral selection chip. According to different types of spectrum selection chips, different types of spectrometers can be obtained. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, a spectrometer obtained by selecting a chip according to a transmission type spectrum may be referred to as a transmission type spectrometer, and a spectrometer obtained by selecting a chip according to a reflection type spectrum may be referred to as a reflection type spectrometer.
Fig. 2 shows a schematic structural diagram of a transmission spectrometer provided according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 2, the transmission-type spectrometer may include a lighting lens 201, a transmission-type spectrum selection chip 202, and a near infrared detector 203, wherein the lighting lens 201 may include a convex lens and a concave lens; near infrared detector 203 is disposed in cooperation with transmissive spectral selection chip 202 (the manner of arrangement may be parallel to both as shown in fig. 2). Based on the transmission-type spectrometer shown in fig. 2, the detection light can be incident to the transmission-type spectrum selection chip 202 through the lighting lens 201 and then transmitted to the near infrared detector 203 through the transmission-type spectrum selection chip 202, so that the follow-up operation is ensured, wherein in the transmission process through the transmission-type spectrum selection chip 202, the transmission-type spectrum selection chip 202 performs dynamic light modulation on the detection light.
Fig. 3 shows a schematic structural diagram of a reflection type spectrometer provided according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 3, the reflection type spectrometer may include a lighting lens 201, a reflection type spectrum selection chip 302, and a near infrared detector 203, wherein the lighting lens 201 may include a convex lens and a concave lens; near infrared detector 203 is disposed in conjunction with reflective spectral selection chip 302 (the manner of disposition may be such that there is an angle between the two locations as shown in fig. 3). Based on the reflection-type spectrometer shown in fig. 3, the detection light can be incident to the reflection-type spectrum selection chip 302 through the lighting lens 201 and then reflected to the near infrared detector 203 through the reflection-type spectrum selection chip 302, so that the follow-up operation is ensured, wherein in the process of being reflected by the reflection-type spectrum selection chip 302, the reflection-type spectrum selection chip 302 dynamically modulates the detection light.
It should be noted that, although the lens structure and the arrangement of the spectrum selection chip and the detector are described by taking fig. 2 and 3 as examples, those skilled in the art will understand that the embodiments of the disclosure should not be limited thereto. In fact, the user can flexibly set the lens structure and the setting mode of the spectrum selection chip and the detector according to personal preference and/or practical application scene, so long as the sequential and accurate execution of the subsequent work can be ensured.
Through the reflection type spectrum selection chip and the transmission type spectrum selection chip provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, more spectrum selection states can be conveniently obtained; furthermore, the spectrometer can realize dynamic light modulation and recovery of spectrum signals without a small incident slit or a longer propagation path, and ensures high spectral resolution performance under high light input.
In one possible implementation, the spectral selection chip 101 shown in fig. 1 may include a plurality of spectral selection channels. Each spectral selection channel may have a plurality of operating states, each of which may correspond to an optical characteristic. The drive signals may be used to control the operating state of each spectral selection channel selection in the spectral selection chip 101 shown in fig. 1. Accordingly, each spectral selection channel may be configured to adjust its own operating state based on the drive signal, respectively.
Considering that each spectrum selection channel has a corresponding optical characteristic after its own operating state can be adjusted based on the driving signal, the optical characteristics of all spectrum selection channels constitute the optical characteristics of the spectrum selection chip 101 shown in fig. 1. Thus, the driving signal may be used to control the spectrum selection chip to adjust to the first optical characteristic by driving the operating state of the spectrum selection channel to change. Under the control of the driving signal, the working state of each spectrum selection channel of the spectrum selection chip can be changed, so that the first optical characteristic of the spectrum selection chip can be changed, and the spectrum selection chip can dynamically modulate the first incident light.
According to the spectrum selection channel with different working states, each working state corresponds to one optical characteristic, so that the working states of the spectrum selection channel are adjusted to obtain various different optical characteristics, dynamic modulation of light by the spectrum selection chip is guaranteed, and more spectrum selection states are conveniently obtained.
It should be noted that, the number of spectrum selection channels included in the spectrum selection chip 101 shown in fig. 1 may be set as required, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present disclosure.
In one possible implementation, each spectral selection channel may comprise a plurality of super-surface structural units, respectively, that is, an array combination of the plurality of super-surface structural units constitutes one spectral selection channel. The operating state of each spectrally selective channel may be determined by the surface states of a plurality of super surface structural units. The surface states of the super-surface structural unit can comprise geometric parameters such as size, shape and the like, and different surface states can directly influence the working state of the spectrum selection channel. The drive signal may be used to control the operating state of the spectral selection channel by driving a change in the surface state of the respective super-surface structural unit in the spectral selection channel, the plurality of super-surface structural units in each spectral selection channel being respectively configured to adjust the surface state based on the drive signal. Under the control of the driving signal, the surface state of each super-surface structural unit of each spectrum selection channel can be changed respectively, so that the working state of each spectrum selection channel can be changed, and therefore the optical characteristic of the spectrum selection chip can be changed (for example, the optical characteristic of the spectrum selection chip can be adjusted to the first optical characteristic based on the driving signal), and the spectrum selection chip can dynamically modulate the first incident light under the first optical characteristic.
According to the super-surface structure unit provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, the surface state of the super-surface structure unit can be changed under the action of a driving signal, light incident to the super-surface structure unit can be correspondingly modulated based on the surface state, and different combinations based on the super-surface structure unit are beneficial to obtaining more spectrum selection states subsequently.
Fig. 4 shows a schematic structural diagram of a spectrum selection chip provided according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 4, the spectral selection chip 101 may include 5*5 spectral selection channels 402, and each spectral selection channel 402 may include 9 partitions 403 (i.e., partition No. 1, partition No. 2, partition No. … …, partition No. 9), with each partition 403 representing a super surface structure unit. The partitions 1 to 9 respectively have different super-surface structures, and have a reflection or transmission selection tendency for light rays with different wavelengths. In this example, partitions 1 to 9 have a tendency to select (transmit or reflect) light in the range of 800nm to 1000nm, 1000nm to 1200nm, 1200nm to 1400nm, 1400nm to 1600nm, 1600nm to 1800nm, 1800nm to 2000nm, 2000nm to 2200nm, 2200nm to 2400nm, 2400nm to 2600nm, respectively, and a dynamically controllable spectral selection chip can achieve a variable tendency to select light in the range of 800 to 2600nm, with the advantage of a wide spectral detection range, while a smaller volume can be achieved with a spectral selection chip based on a super-surface structure.
In one example, partitions 1 through 9 shown in fig. 4 have independent dynamic regulation capabilities, which may be embodied as independent switching. That is, the driving signal can independently control the surface states of the super surface structure units so that when a certain super surface structure unit is driven, the super surface structure unit has the effect of an optical switch.
In yet another example, the dynamic regulation capability of partitions 1 through 9 shown in FIG. 4 may also be embodied as control of different status bits. That is, control of different status bits can be achieved by hierarchical control of the drive signals. Taking a transmission type spectrum selection chip as an example, the driving signal can be electrostatic force, and the surface state of the super-surface structure unit is controlled by changing parameters such as the size, the direction, the acting position and the like of the electrostatic force, so that the transmittance of the spectrum selection chip to incident light is gradually increased or gradually decreased, and the spectrum selection chip has optical characteristics in different states.
As shown in fig. 1, the detector 102 may be cooperatively disposed with the spectrum selection chip 101, so that the detection light to be analyzed in the target detection area can be reflected or transmitted to the detector after being modulated by the spectrum selection chip. The detector may be configured to receive the modulated first incident light and to convert the modulated first incident light into a first electrical signal.
The detector may comprise a plurality of pixel points. The detector may be configured to receive the modulated first incident light through the pixel and convert to output a corresponding first electrical signal. Each pixel of the detector may correspond to one or more spectrally selected channels of the spectrally selected chip, the corresponding number may generally depend on the number of pixels of the detector.
Fig. 5 illustrates a state diagram of dynamic regulation provided according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 5, the spectrum selection chip 101 includes 5*5 spectrum selection channels 402, and the area array detector 520 includes 5*5 pixels 521 (a part of the pixels are blocked and not shown in fig. 5), where the number of pixels of the area array detector 520 is equal to the number of spectrum selection channels of the spectrum selection chip 101, and each spectrum selection channel 402 corresponds to one pixel 521. The number of the pixels of the detector, the number of the spectrum selection channels of the spectrum selection chip and the corresponding modes of the pixels and the spectrum selection channels can be set according to actual requirements, and the protection scope of the disclosure is not limited.
The detector may be a single point detector or an array detector. In the case of a single-point detector, the detector comprises one pixel, to which all spectral selection channels of the spectral selection chip may correspond.
Fig. 6 illustrates a state diagram of dynamic regulation provided according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 6, the single-point detector 602 includes one pixel point, and all the spectrum selection channels of the spectrum selection chip 101 correspond to the pixel point. These spectrally selective channels are assigned respective operating states (array combinations of a plurality of super surface structural units), the operating state of each spectrally selective channel being controllable by means of a drive signal. These spectrally selective channels can constitute an equivalent entity that has a dynamic selection of transmission or reflection for different spectral wavelengths. The spectrum selection channels can have certain repeatability and can be set according to actual conditions. When the single-point detector is adopted, the light intensity of the incident light integrally modulated by the spectrum selection chip can be measured at different moments, so that the spectrum measurement based on time resolution is carried out, and the time resolution spectrum is obtained. For example, by using the corresponding manner of the spectrum selection chip 101 and the single-point detector 602 shown in fig. 6, the spectrometer detects the detection light of the target detection area, the light intensity data after the dynamic light modulation of the same equivalent whole can be obtained at time t1, the light intensity data after the dynamic light modulation of the same equivalent whole can be obtained at time t2, and so on, so that the spectrum measurement work based on time resolution can be performed.
Through the cooperation of the dynamically controllable spectrum selection channel and the single-point detector, the plurality of spectrum selection channels form an equivalent whole, the light transmission characteristic of the equivalent whole is controllable along with time, and a dynamic light transmission environment based on time resolution can be formed, so that the spectrometer has time resolution light modulation capability and obtains time resolution spectrum.
In the case that the detector is an array detector, the detector includes two or more pixels, each pixel of the detector corresponds to a portion of the spectrum selection channel of the spectrum selection chip. The array detector may comprise a linear array detector and an area array detector, and the two are similar in application principle, and the area array detector is taken as an example for illustration.
Fig. 7 illustrates a state diagram of dynamic regulation provided according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 7, 5*5 spectrum selection channels of the spectrum selection chip 101 correspond to 5*5 pixels of the area array detector 520 one by one. These spectrally selective channels are assigned respective operating states (array combinations of a plurality of super surface structural units), the operating state of each spectrally selective channel being controllable by means of a drive signal. Each spectrum selection channel can respectively form an equivalent whole body, each equivalent whole body respectively has dynamic selection tendency on transmission or reflection of different spectrum wavelengths, and the number of the equivalent whole bodies is equal to the number of pixel points of the detector. There is no repeatability between the multiple spectral channels. When the area array detector is adopted, the light intensity of the incident light modulated by the spectrum selection channel at the corresponding position of the spectrum selection chip at different moments can be measured through each pixel of the detector, so that the spectrum detection based on the time and space mixed resolution is carried out, and the time and space mixed resolution spectrum is obtained. For example, by using the corresponding mode of the spectrum selection chip 101 and the area array detector 520 shown in fig. 7, the spectrometer detects the detection light of the target detection area, the light intensity data after dynamic light modulation of the equivalent whole body with different spatial positions can be obtained at time t1, the light intensity data after dynamic light modulation of the equivalent whole body with different spatial positions can be obtained at time t2, and the spectrum measurement based on the time and space mixed resolution can be performed by analogy.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, through the matched use of the dynamically controllable spectrum selection channel array detector, the spectrum selection channels form a plurality of equivalent integers, the light transmission characteristic of each equivalent integer can be independently controlled along with time, the space dimension is increased on the basis of the time dimension, and a dynamic light transmission environment based on time and space mixed resolution can be formed, so that the spectrometer has the light modulation capacity of time and space mixed resolution and flexible spectrum resolution capacity.
The spectral restoration module 103 shown in fig. 1 may be configured to restore first spectral data of the first incident light according to the first electrical signal and a pre-calibrated first transfer function. The first transfer function represents a transfer function corresponding to the first optical characteristic, which may be determined during a calibration phase of the spectrometer (see further below).
In one example, for probe light to be analyzed within a target detection region, a detection process of a spectrometer may include: the spectrometer can couple the radiation light of the target detection area to a light-passing hole with the diameter of 1mm through an external lighting lens, and the detection light passing through the light-passing hole irradiates a dynamically controllable spectrum selection chip; the spectrum selection chip can be dynamically modulated along with time, and the super-surface structure of the spectrum selection chip is driven and controlled to realize dynamic selection of transmission or reflection spectrum, namely, the spectrum selection chip can be modulated to have different optical characteristics at different moments and reflect or transmit the modulated detection light to the detector; each pixel point of the detector detects an electric signal which can reflect the intensity of light intensity according to the received modulated detection light, and the electric signal can be a wavelength-light intensity curve; and combining the optical characteristics of the spectrum selection chip and the corresponding transfer function obtained by pre-calibration, and recovering the spectrum data of the detection light based on the light intensity data obtained by the detector and based on time resolution or time and space mixed resolution.

In one possible implementation, the spectrometer 1 shown in fig. 1 may further comprise a calibration module and a data storage module.
The calibration module may be configured to determine the first transfer function based on the second spectral data, the second electrical signal, and the first optical characteristic. The second spectral data, the second electrical signal, and the first optical characteristic are obtained by: the spectrum selection chip can dynamically modulate the second incident light based on the driving signal, and the spectrum selection chip in the modulating state has a first optical characteristic; the detector may receive the modulated second incident light and convert the modulated second incident light into a second electrical signal.

Fig. 8 shows a flow diagram of a spectrometer calibration phase provided in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 8, the operation of the spectrometer during the calibration phase may include:
