This invention discloses a spectral detection
system and method based on an optical
frequency conversion array, belonging to the field of computational
spectroscopy. The
system includes a spectral encoding array, a photoelectric detection unit, and a computational reconstruction unit. The spectral encoding array is composed of various heterogeneous luminescent materials with different
ultraviolet excitation spectral characteristics, responsible for converting the
ultraviolet light to be measured into visible
fluorescence. The photoelectric detection unit uses a common
silicon-based
image sensor to acquire
fluorescence intensity signals. The computational reconstruction unit, based on a pre-stored
system response matrix, reconstructs the
ultraviolet spectral distribution inversely using an
algorithm. This invention improves the
condition number of the response matrix through a heterogeneous material combination encoding strategy and utilizes the R / G / B channels of a
color sensor to achieve information dimensionality enhancement, effectively eliminating the ultraviolet
blind zone of
silicon-based sensors. It has advantages such as low cost,
miniaturization,
solid-state design, and high reconstruction accuracy, and is suitable for portable
environmental monitoring and biomedical diagnostics.
