SpectroChip is a breakthrough technology that integrates all the functions of an optical spectrometer on a chip with the size of half an SD card. It is designed and fabricated using X-ray lithography and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology. The current chip module includes the slit, micro concave grating and mirror and has a spectral range from 300 to 1000 nm. SpectroChip technology has the advantage of high performance with high sensitivity and accuracy while achieving chip-size miniaturization. This technology is being applied to the development of ultra-compact optical sensors and/or devices that can deliver real-time spectral data and analysis. Examples include novel optical sensor modules and ultra-compact, high-performance spectrophotometers capable of UV/VIS and florescence analysis for research lab and educational purposes.
In this webinar Dr. Ko has described the SpectroChip technology, its integration into optical spectrum processing units, and real-world sensing applications in Health Care, Food Safety, and Semiconductor Processing and Metrology.
