Improved accuracy of analyte sensor using low angle sensitive optical filters
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US12011263B2) discloses an innovative apparatus comprising two low angle sensitive (LAS) optical filters designed to selectively filter light based on wavelength and angle of incidence. The first filter prevents light outside a specific band pass region from reaching a photodetector, allowing only light within this region to pass through at varying transmission percentages based on the angle of incidence. The second filter operates similarly but with a different band pass region and transmission percentages, showcasing a unique approach to light filtering technology.
Furthermore, the patent details a method for utilizing this apparatus, emphasizing the precise control over light transmission based on angle of incidence and wavelength. By strategically layering metal and oxide materials in the filters, the system achieves efficient filtering while maintaining flexibility in adjusting the transmission percentages. The method highlights the potential applications of this technology in various fields requiring precise light manipulation, showcasing the versatility and effectiveness of the patented apparatus. Overall, the patent represents a significant advancement in optical filter design, offering a novel solution for controlling light transmission in a highly customizable and efficient manner.
