Location of Latent Forensic Traces Using Multispectral Bands by Samuel Miralles-Mosquera, Bernardo Alarcos, Alfredo Gardel

“…In our work, we have used a digital SLR camera modified to obtain a nominal sensitivity beyond the visible spectrum. The goal is to obtain forensic evidences from a crime scene using the multispectral camera by an expert in the field knowing which wavelength filters and correct illumination sources should be used, making visible latent evidences hidden from the human-eye. …”

Recent Enhancements to Interline and Electron Multiplying CCD Image Sensors by Eric G. Stevens, Jeffrey A. Clayhold, Hung Doan, Robert P. Fabinski, Jaroslav Hynecek, Stephen L. Kosman, Christopher Parks

“…The thinner, surface pinning layer also resulted in a reduction of smear by 4 dB in the blue portion of the visible spectrum. For EMCCDs, gain aging was eliminated by providing an oxide-only dielectric under its multiplication phase, while retaining the oxide-nitride-oxide (ONO) gate dielectrics elsewhere in the device.…”

Inverse designed extended depth of focus meta-optics for broadband imaging in the visible by Bayati, Elyas, Pestourie, Raphael, Colburn, Shane, Lin, Zin, Johnson, Steven G, Majumdar, Arka

“…Exploiting the extended depth of focus and computational post processing, we demonstrate broadband imaging across the full visible spectrum using a 1 mm, f/1 meta-optic. Unlike other canonical EDOF meta-optics, characterized by phase masks such as a log-asphere or cubic function, our design exhibits a highly invariant PSF across ∼290 nm optical bandwidth, which leads to significantly improved image quality, as quantified by structural similarity metrics.…”
