A CMOS Image Sensor Based Refractometer without Spectrometry.

ABSTRACT: The refractive index (RI), an important optical property of a material, is measured by commercial refractometers in the food, agricultural, chemical, and manufacturing industries. Most of these refractometers must be equipped with a prism for light dispersion, which drastically limits the design and size of the refractometer. Recently, there have been several reports on the development of a surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based RI detector, which is characterized by its high sensitivity and simplicity. However, regardless of the prism, an expensive spectrometer is required to analyze the resonance wavelength or angle of incidence. This paper proposes a method that eliminates the need for the prism and other conventional spectrometer components. For this purpose, total internal reflection S
