Multilayer thin films (MTF) based computational spectrometer. (a) Photograph of the MTF filter array, which is directly attached to the CMOS image sensor. (b) Schematic of MTF filters: TiO2 and SiO2 are deposited on a glass substrate with design properties such as the number of layers of the i-th MTF filter li and thickness of the l-th layer of the i-th MTF filter tilth. (c) Two transmission functions of MTF filters. (d) Spectral response of the CMOS image sensor. (e) Spectral sensitivity of an MTF filter with the CMOS image sensor, which can be calibrated by element-wise multiplication of the transmission function and the spectral response of the CMOS image sensor. (f) Heatmap of the sensing matrix. Each row represents the spectral sensitivity with respect to wavelength. (g) Upper triangular matrix of correlation coefficients which are pairwise compared among rows of the sensing matrix.
