Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for determining at least one optical property of a sample. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for detecting whether a product is a branded product or a counterfeit of a branded product, as well as a method for determining at least one optical property of a sample.
- Such devices and methods are generally used in chemical analysis, environmental analysis, medical technology or in other fields. A particular focus of this application is on devices and methods used to protect against piracy.
- spectrometers usually have a light source for generating a tunable light beam and at least one detector.
- This at least one detector is designed to record light that is reflected, scattered, transmitted or emitted in the form of luminescent light (that is to say phosphorescence light and / or fluorescent light).
- Spectroscopy methods are known in which the excitation light incident on the sample is spectrally tuned, and spectroscopy methods are known in which the light emanating from the sample, for example transmitted light, fluorescent light, phosphorescent light, reflected light or scattered light, is recorded spectrally resolved.
- spectrometers are usually set up in such a way that they have optical separation devices in order to spectrally separate the excitation light incident on the sample and / or the detection light emanating from the sample.
- a white light source may be used as the excitation light source, and in order to change the wavelength of the excitation light, the light emanating from this white light source is separated into its spectral components by a monochromator (eg, a prism and / or an optical grating) From these spectral components to select a specific wavelength or wavelength range as the excitation wavelength and radiate on or in the sample.
- a monochromator eg, a prism and / or an optical grating
- the detection light emanating from the sample can be spectrally split by an optical separation device in order to record a detection light spectrum.
- the devices for spectral separation of light used in these known spectrometers are extremely expensive in practice.
- prism spectrometers and also spectrometers which work with an optical grating require a large amount of space, since a minimum distance of the light rays and a suitable mechanism are required for reliable separation.
- such optical separation devices are extremely sensitive to vibration in practice and thus less suitable for use, for example, in mobile devices, in particular hand-held devices.
- tunable light source for such a spectrometer device
- Another possibility of providing a tunable light source for such a spectrometer device would be to make the light source itself tunable.
- a few light sources which are tunable as such, d. H. optionally emit light in at least two wavelength ranges.
- a practical example of such tunable light sources are tunable lasers, which exist in various technical designs. For example, certain types of solid state lasers, dye lasers, and diode lasers are typically tunable over a limited range of wavelengths.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a device for determining at least one optical property of a sample, which avoids the disadvantages of the devices known from the prior art.
- the device should enable a check whether a product is a branded product or a counterfeit of a branded product.
- the device should be used.
- a device which comprises a tunable excitation light source for applying, in particular irradiation, the sample with excitation light. Furthermore, the device should comprise a detector for detecting detection light emanating from the sample. In order to avoid the problems described above which occur in connection with known excitation light sources for such devices, it is proposed according to the invention that the excitation light source comprises a light-emitting diode array.
- This light-emitting diode array is at least partially designed as a monolithic light-emitting diode array, wherein the monolithic light-emitting diode array comprises at least three light-emitting diodes each having a different emission spectrum.
- the monolithic light-emitting diode array can comprise an inorganic monolithic light-emitting diode array with an inorganic semiconductor chip and / or an organic monolithic light-emitting diode array Emitters and / or other organic layers such as organic n-semiconducting or p-type semiconductive layers) may preferably be provided with respective thin-film transistor circuits (e.g.
- active matrices ixscrienen
- other components may also be integrated on the carrier, such as, for example, electronic control components for the modulated excitation of the light-emitting diodes (see below).
- Corresponding circuits can also be provided on an inorganic semiconductor chip with a light-emitting diode array, for example transistor circuits for driving the light-emitting diodes.
- an "array” is to be understood to mean an arrangement of light-emitting diodes which comprises at least three light-emitting diodes, but it is preferred to provide a maximum number of "interpolation points" for recording a spectrum if the light-emitting diode array at least four, more preferably ten light-emitting diodes or even one hundred light-emitting diodes or more.
- Such light-emitting diode arrays are now technically feasible as monolithic devices and can be produced for example by a suitable mask technique in parallel or in serial process technology, so that, for example, differently doped light-emitting diodes or LEDs, each on a different emitter material based (eg a different inorganic semiconductor material or a different organic emitter) on a semiconductor chip can be made side by side.
- the light-emitting diode array can comprise a rectangular or square matrix of regularly arranged light-emitting diodes, or even irregular arrangements.
- Each of these light-emitting diodes preferably has a fixed spectral width. It is preferred in this case if light-emitting diodes are used which in themselves have a spectral width (preferably the full width at half maximum, FWHM) of not more than 30 nm, preferably not even more than 20 nm, exhibit. Preferably, a light-emitting diode array is used which covers a spectral width of 450 nm to 850 nm. However, portions of this substantially visible spectrum are also feasible and, depending on the application, useful in practice.

- FIG. 5 shows an enlarged illustration of the light-emitting diode array 14.
- this light-emitting diode array 14 comprises three individual monolithic light-emitting diode chips 420, 422, 424.
- the first chip 420 comprises nine individual light-emitting diodes 426, the second chip 422 six individual light-emitting diodes 426, and the third chip 424 three such light-emitting diodes 426
- Light-emitting diodes 426 can be seen in each case as square areas with different electrode contacts 428, wherein the electrode contacts in FIG. 5 are shown dark. These electrode contacts 428 are electrically contacted, for example, by a wire bonding method.
- the individual light-emitting diodes 426 are in each case produced on a common carrier 430 of each of the chips 420, 422, 424 in such a way that they have different emission characteristics (see below, FIG. 6).
- the individual electrode contacts 428 can be connected to the supply lines 416 (see FIG. 4), for example by wire bonding.
- Bonding pads are also provided, to which bonding points can be arranged.
- the three light-emitting diode chips 420, 422 and 424 are arranged in FIG. 5 such that the entire light-emitting diode array 14 has a width B of 3.4 mm and a height H of 1.6 mm.
- the light emitting diode array 114 has a pitch (for example, center to center spacing of adjacent light emitting diodes 426) of approximately 600 ⁇ m. In this case, about a quarter of the total area is filled by the active surfaces of the LEDs 426, the rest of the surface is space.
- the individual light-emitting diodes 426 thus have in this exemplary embodiment a distance of approximately 300 ⁇ m from the respectively adjacent light-emitting diode 426.

- the spectra of the LEDs 426 of the LED array 1 14 cover a spectral range between approximately 450 nm and approximately 850 nm. In each case, the maxima 610 of the spectra are not distributed equidistantly. Overall, however, it can be seen that the spectra of the individual light-emitting diodes 426 are very narrow-band, so that the half widths (for example, such a half width 612 for the longest wavelength light emitting diode 426 in FIG. 6 is plotted) do not exceed 30 nm for any light emitting diode 426. Typical half-widths are even below 30 nm, so that preferably 20 nm can be chosen as the upper limit to this half-width.
- the half-width is the spectral width of the emission curve at half the intensity value at the maximum 610. It can easily be seen from FIG. 6 that an intensity regulation of the emission of the individual light-emitting diodes 426 makes it possible to produce an almost arbitrary spectrum within the visible spectral range.
- This drive may include a digital drive, ie a pure on / off circuit, but may also include intermediate values between a maximum brightness and an off state, for example in the form of a digital gray scale control (for example an 8 or 16 bit drive the brightnesses) or a pure analogue control. In this way, the intensities ⁇ of the individual light-emitting diodes 426 can be mixed virtually as desired.

- a suitable modulation of the intensities of the individual light-emitting diodes 426 can be dispensed with an excitation-side monochromator, wherein nevertheless, preferably almost simultaneously, a complete spectrum of a sample 12 can be recorded ,
- the fluorescent light 136 in FIG. 7 is considered by way of example, although other embodiments are possible, for example (alternatively or additionally) a transmission or absorption spectrum, a phosphorescence spectrum, a reflection spectrum or other types of spectroscopy.

- the principle of the measurement described below can be extended independently of the light-emitting diode array 14 to other types of excitation light sources, which comprise mutually independently controllable, spectrally different excitation light sources. Accordingly, reference is made to Figure 9, which shows a generalized flow chart of a method according to the invention, which is also independent of the presence of a light-emitting diode array 114, i.
- a reference beam 710 is branched off from the excitation light beam 122 (for example, by a partially transmissive mirror, which is not shown, or by another optical device).
- the intensity of this reference beam 710 is monitored by a reference detector 712.
- the device 110 has a multiplexing device 714 and a demodulation device 716.

- this clock signal 720 is transmitted to current sources 722 or, in general, controls which supply the individual light-emitting diodes 426 with current. In this way, an individual light-emitting diode current 724 is generated for each of the LEDs 426, with which the respective associated light-emitting diode 426 is driven.
- the intensity ⁇ of the individual light-emitting diodes 426 can be modulated with an individual frequency f1 to fn, so that these frequency components are contained in the excitation light 122.
- This step of the modulation of the individual light sources f1 to fn is indicated symbolically in FIG. 9 by the reference numeral 910.
- the excitation light beam 122 can be modulated by the modulation 910 of the individual light sources in such a way that it differs from differently modulated spectral Shares.

- ⁇ ( ⁇ , t) £ ( ⁇
- ⁇ ( ⁇ , t) in each case denotes the intensity as a function of the wavelength and
- Time which is the sum of the intensities of the individual light sources.
- This sum comprises in each case for each individual light source (the variable runs from 1 to n, that is to say over all light sources) a constant offset component ⁇ 1 0 ( ⁇ ). Furthermore, the sum for each individual light source comprises a modulated one
- This modulation frequency is generated by the local oscillators 718 as described above.

- an infinite number of individual light sources would be used, which each have an infinitely narrow emission spectrum, so that a continuous arbitrary spectrum can be set, each with individually modulated individual frequencies.
- the reference beam 710 is split off from the excitation light beam 122. Accordingly, the excitation light beam 122 in the sample 1 12 generates a fluorescent light 136, which in turn has individual modulations in response to the modulation in step 910.
- This fluorescent light is recorded in method step 912, for example in the arrangement according to FIG. 7 with the detector 128. If other spectroscopy arrangements are used, then in this method step 910, for example, transmission light, reflected light or other light would be recorded. The further process steps are then carried out analogously.
- reference beam 710 is detected, for example by reference detector 712.
- the signals generated by the two detectors 128 and 712 contain, in accordance with the modulation carried out in method step 910, again frequency components with the frequencies f1 to fn.
- these frequency components correspond in each case to the response of the sample 112 to the spectrum of the correspondingly modulated light source.
- the fluorescence response to the irradiation of the light of the first light emitting diode 426 (LED1), which was modulated at the frequency f1 in the fluorescent light beam 136 is also included at the frequency f1.
- This fluorescence response can thus by a suitable frequency analysis of the fluorescent light in the frequency domain are recovered, so that in parallel the fluorescence responses to each excitation light source can be determined.
- step 916 the signal of the fluorescence detector 128 is split and mixed separately with each of the clock signals 720 of the individual local oscillators 718 in frequency mixers 726.
- these filters 730 may comprise low-pass filters and / or band-pass filters, which are respectively tuned to the individual modulation frequency f1 to fn for each of the mixed signals 728.
- raw signals S1 to Sn can be generated, which are identified in FIG. 7 by reference numeral 732 and which in each case are response signals to the irradiation of the individual light-emitting diodes LED1 to LEDn.
- method steps 916 to 918 which are carried out for example in demodulation device 716, are standard methods of high-frequency technology which are used, for example, in the context of lock-in methods. Accordingly, modifications of the illustrated method and / or the illustrated arrangement are possible and known to the person skilled in the art.
- the reference light recorded in method step 914 can be demodulated.
- this reference signal can be split into n individual signals, which are then mixed in each case with the clock signals 720 in frequency mixers 734.
- filters 936 analogously to the above description of method step 918, in filters 936, a filtering process is carried out, which in turn is adapted to the individual modulation frequency. In this way, individual reference signals 738 are generated.
- FIG. 9 also shows how the raw signals 732 and the reference signals 738, which were obtained by the method described above and, for example, by the device 110 shown in FIG. 7, can be further processed to produce a fluorescence spectrum of the sample 12 to create. It should be noted, however, that the method steps described below are optional and that other types of further processing of the raw signals 732 are possible.
- the signal processing can take place for example in a control device 214, as shown for example in Figures 2 and 3.

- the device 110 according to FIG. 10 is initially constructed largely analogously, as shown in FIG. 7, so that reference can be made to the above description of this figure for most of the components. In contrast to FIG. 7, however, in FIG.
- the at least one signal provided by the at least one detector 128 is first converted into one or more digital signals in one or more analog-to-digital converters 1010.
- the output signal or signals of this analog-to-digital converter 1010 are transmitted to a frequency analyzer 1012.
- this frequency analyzer 1012 assumes all or part of the function of the demodulation device 716.
- FFT fast Fourier analysis
- the at least one signal of the detector 128 is analyzed so that, for example, those within the frequency ranges f1 to fn lying partial signals can be determined separately.
- raw signals 732 are then output as signals S1 to Sn (referred to as "raw signals” 732 in Figure 10) .
- These raw signals 732 can then be further processed, for example, by the method described above with reference to Figure 8), for example using the reference signals 738, in particular for producing a spectrum similar to the spectrum shown in FIG.
- the variant of the device 110 illustrated in FIG. 10 can also be further modified to the effect that the reference signals 738 can also be generated by means of a frequency analyzer instead of frequency mixers 734.
- the at least one signal determined by the at least one reference detector 112 could in turn be converted into at least one digital signal, for example via an analog-to-digital converter, and then subsequently frequency-analyzed (eg, again Fourier-transformed) in a frequency analyzer to become.
- the further processing of these reference signals R1 to Rn 738 for example, again analogous to the above description of Figure 8.
- FIG. 11 shows by way of example a measurement result of such a measurement. provided, which was achieved with a measuring structure analogous to the device shown in Figure 2.
- a measurement and evaluation scheme was used analogously to the embodiment shown in FIG. 10, so that reference can be made to the descriptions of these FIGS. 2 and 10 with regard to the details of this measurement.
- the device 110 shown in Figure 2 was used to detect an absorbance spectrum of a marked with a marker substance mineral oil in a round sample vessel.
- the mineral oil used was commercial diesel oil from Aral. This diesel oil was admixed as marker substance with an anthraquinone dye of the following structural formula:
- the concentration of the marker substance was 500 ppb (in mass units) in the mineral oil.
- the marker material was dissolved in the mineral oil and placed in a sample vial made of clear glass (borosilicate glass) with a diameter of 17 mm and a height of 63 mm (capacity about 8 ml).
- the sample vial was introduced as sample 1 12 (see FIG. 1) into the device 110 shown in FIG. 2 and transilluminated by the excitation light beam 122. In this case, only the transmission light 132 was detected by the detector 130 in this embodiment.
- the arrangement used deviates from the device 110 according to FIG. 10 insofar as the case of a measurement of fluorescent light 136 is shown in FIG.
- the transmission light 132 is detected instead of the fluorescent light 136, digitized by means of an ADC 1010 and digitized by means of an ADC 1010 a frequency analyzer 1012 was analyzed.
- the intensities 11 to 118 transmitted through the sample vial which correspond to the signals S1 to Sn in FIG. 10, were measured.
- the measuring time was only about 5 seconds.
- the sample vial was removed from the device 110 and the intensities now falling on the detector 130 are measured in 101 to 1018, corresponding to the signals R1 to Rn in Figure 10. This shows that (see FIG.
- the reference light beam 710 does not necessarily have to be a beam diverted from the excitation light beam 122, but can also be wholly or partially identical to it, for example, simply removing sample 112.
- the reference detector 712 in Figure 7 need not necessarily be separate from the detectors 128, 130 (see Figure 2), but may also be wholly or partially identical to one or more of these detectors 128, 130.
- the individual measuring points of the individual light-emitting diodes 426 in FIG. 11 are shown as square boxes.
- the solid line represents a polynomial adaptation function, which was adapted to the recorded 18 measurement points.
- the measurement curve shown in FIG. 11 shows the range of the extinction of the mineral oil in a range below approximately 600 nm. This extinction decreases sharply with increasing wavelength. This extinction is followed in a range of about 650 to 850 nm, the characteristic extinction of the marker substance.
- This simple exemplary embodiment shows that by means of the device 110 illustrated in FIG. 2, characteristic spectra of marker substances can be recorded in a simple and fast manner, without requiring a time-consuming and technically complex tuning of an excitation light source.
- simple hand-held devices can be realized which deliver information about a sample, such as the marked mineral oil in the present case, in a matter of seconds. Such devices thus represent a significant step on the way to effectively combat, for example, piracy, since in this way, for example, quickly and easily on site for characteristic but usually at least largely invisible to the human eye markings, which are attached only original products, can be searched.
