Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to a spectrometer built using LEDs of different core frequency as light sources, with said LEDs coded to allow extraction of the individual LED expression in a target material, and to also allow for the implicit mitigation of ambient light.
  • a Spectrometer is an optical instrument used to measure properties of light over a specific portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, and is typically used in spectroscopic analysis to identify materials.
  • the variable measured is most often the light's intensity but could also, for instance, be the polarization state.
  • the independent variable is usually the wavelength of the light, normally expressed as some fraction of a meter, but is sometimes expressed as some unit directly proportional to the photon energy, such as wave number or electron volts, which has a reciprocal relationship to wavelength.
  • Spectrometer is a term that is applied to instruments that operate over a very wide range of wavelengths, from gamma rays and X-rays into the far infrared. If the region of interest is restricted to near the visible spectrum, the study is called spectrophotometry.
  • any particular instrument will operate over a small portion of this total range because of the different techniques used to measure different portions of the spectrum.
  • a Light Emitting Diode is a semiconductor diode that emits light when an electric current is applied in the forward direction of the device, across the p-n junction forming the diode itself.
  • the wavelength of the light emitted, and therefore its colour, depends on the band gap energy of the materials forming the p-n junction.
  • the materials used for the LED have a direct band gap with energies corresponding to near-infrared, visible or near- ultraviolet light.
  • LED development began with infrared and red devices made with gallium arsenide. Advances in materials science have made possible the production of devices with ever-shorter wavelengths, producing light in a variety of colours.
  • An LED is usually a small area (less than 1 mm 2 ) light source, often with optics added directly on top of the chip to shape its radiation pattern and assist in reflection [1][2].
  • the colour of the emitted light depends on the composition and condition of the semiconducting material used, and can be infrared, visible, or ultraviolet. Since LED's have quite specific light emitting behaviour, and this behaviour is relatively stable, one could take a group of LEDs of different wavelengths and combine them to provide a composite light source. By allowing this light to fall onto a sample and then collecting the returned light and analysing it via a spectrometer, a simple, robust self- lighted spectrometer system may be formed.
  • the quality of the data is closely linked to the quality of the spectrometer, and aside from cost there is little advantage over a broad-spectrum light source (e.g. halogen bulb) coupled to the spectrometer itself. Accordingly, there is no advantage gained by using LEDs with the spectrometer systems presently known by those skilled in the art. LEDs have another very useful capability, in that they switch from on to off (and vice versa) extremely quickly relative to conventional incandescent or other light sources. Furthermore, their settling time (the time taken to reach a steady state) is also very short. Both these times are typically of the order nanoseconds or less, compared with hours to reach equilibrium for a typical halogen bulb.
  • a broad-spectrum light source e.g. halogen bulb
  • a Hadamard scheme This scheme has a series of steps, where for every step about half the LEDs are on, and the scheme then flips all the LEDs from on to off and vice versa.
  • the precise detail of which LED is on or off for the various parts of the cycle is critical, but well understood.
  • Using an appropriate Hadamard coding scheme provides almost complete compensation for ambient light changes through the collection time, or for any longer time period (as when comparing scans taken some time apart).
  • a further advantage to this approach [3] is that the amalgamation of several LED sources constitutes a noise reduction amounting to as much as M/2 for low intensity light detection. In the case where one might consider replacing a conventional spectrometer, this might constitute 40 or more LEDs, giving a noise reduction factor of 20 or better over an individual LED measurement.
  • the light output from the LED sources be itself measured simultaneously with the light returned from the sample of interest.
  • this may be achieved by a second detector of similar or identical design to the primary sample detector, and a method of bringing a representative portion of the LED light upon this detector.
  • a shielded fibre optic ring located forward of the LEDs which is shielded to avoid collection of light coming from the sample. Contrasting the sample derived light against the reference light for every Hadamard step provides an essential measure of the device performance and a method of compensating for any changes in performance over time.
  • the reference collection need not be identical to the sample directed LED light, it merely needs to be optically constant, and exclude any sample effects. In this way, a relative change in reference intensity may be interpreted as a correction for the collected sample intensity.
  • LEDs are extremely robust, and have very low energy drain, allowing an LED based spectrometer of this design to be very rugged, and able to operate on quite modest power requirements.
  • This device would have no moving parts at all, yet be insensitive to ambient light without needing to directly measure that light.
  • the modest power dissipation would allow for a completely sealed unit, making it ideal for measurements in explosive environments and/or where local heating could be an issue.
  • a sealed unit would also be suitable for measurements in damp or even very wet circumstances, and would tend to be more robust with respect to industrial cleaning practises.
  • the device would be self-lighted, inherently insensitive to ambient light, moisture, vibration and would also be shock proof.
  • the low power requirement means simple power reticulation and lessened power supply requirements. This would make such a unit ideally suited to industrial measurements taken close to the sample such as (but not limited to) paddock measures, processing environments, any measurements needed with poor vibration control, and the like.
  • LEDs are quite cheap.
  • the unit is likely to be very cost effective, able to be manufactured for a reasonable premium over even cheap conventional spectrometers, without sacrificing noise control, and would display considerably enhanced robustness.
  • Such a device would have myriad of uses, from single hand-held units to measure targeted products through to research tools and industrial control devices, and to systems that could be conveniently mounted in a bracket or holder for continuous or on-line applications.
  • the system could be designed to operate via a battery operated system where the battery could be replaced or recharged as required, either by a docking station or communication cable or the like, although it should be appreciated that these are listed by way of example and are not intended to be limiting in any way.
  • an LED based spectrometer comprising: a plurality of LED light sources that are capable of exhibiting different wavelengths and bandwidths, arranged in any convenient manner about a detector module wherein the sample and reference optical paths are distinct from each other.
  • the LED sources may be switched in any convenient manner and in preferred embodiments the LEDs are switched in a Hadamard complement coded sequence.
  • the LED individual signal may be decoded using the inverse Hadamard matrix.
  • the reference optical path should largely exclude light returned from the target or sample.
