Description

一种可实现彩色成像的多光谱成像芯片及彩色成像方法 技术领域
本发明属于多光谱芯片领域,涉及可实现彩色成像的多光谱成像芯片及彩色成像方法。
背景技术
虽然成像技术和光谱技术均有着广阔的应用前景,然而从目前可以公开检索到论文和专利等资料来分析,尚未检索到可实现彩色成像的多光谱成像芯片及其色彩还原技术。与本专利有部分相关的技术有基于液晶可调变滤色器的光谱图像获取及颜色重建方法。在颜色重建方面的资料有:[田立勋,廖宁放,王佳佳,柴阿丽,谭博能,廉玉生.基于液晶可调变滤色器的光谱图像获取及颜色重建方法[J].光学技术,2012,38(05):593-597];然而,该液晶可调谐滤色器体积大,需要时间调谐才能获得图像,无法集成到芯片上;同时液晶可调谐滤色器每个时刻只能采集单一波长的图像,需要经过一段时间的扫描才能获得全谱段的信息,进而进行颜色的重建,耗时长。
在光谱芯片方面,可以检索到的相关资料有:一是以欧洲IMEC为代表的采用法布里-珀罗干涉滤光的方法,其专利包括[国外专利:EP2746740,2014-06-25.Gonzalez,Pilar;Jayapala,Murali;Lambrechts,Andy;Tack,Nicolaas.Spectral imaging device and method to calibrate the same[P]];二是以中国科学院西安光机所等单位为代表的基于表面超材料的技术方案,其专利和论文包括[CN 106847849 B,一种基于超表面窄带滤光的多光谱芯片及其制备方法[P]],[Zhu Wang,Soongyu Yi etc,Single-shot on-chip spectral sensors based on photonic crystal slab,nature,doi:10.1038/s41467-019-08994-5[J]];三是以清华大学为代表基于量子点和浙江大学基于碳纳米线等新型材料的技术方案,其论文包括[Jie Bao&Moungi G.Bawendi,nature--A colloidal quantum dot spectrometer doi:10.1038/nature14576[J]],[Yang et al.,Single-nanowire spectrometers,Science 365,1017–1020(2019),DOI:10.1126/science.aax8814[J]]。从上述公开的材料来看,上述光谱芯片均未报导可以实现彩色图像的功能,主要原因是色散单元结构尺寸较大,难以做到与每个像素对应,降低了空间分辨率,难以实现较好的彩色成像 效果。

步骤S2、计算光谱到颜色变化矩阵:由于每个色块的三基色值是已知的,即I j(R、G、B)已知;假设存在变换矩阵[M],使得下式成立,则上述过程描述为:
I j(R、G、B)=[M]·I j(N)        (1)
其中,I j(R、G、B)和I j(N)均为已知,所以矩阵[M]由下式给出;
