  • Publication number: 20220011486
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods relating to attenuating excitation radiation incident on a sensor in an integrated device that is used for sample analysis are described. At least one semiconductor film of a selected material and crystal morphology is located between a waveguide and a sensor in an integrated device that is formed on a substrate. Rejection ratios greater than 100 or more can be obtained for excitation and emission wavelengths that are 40 nm apart for a single layer of semiconductor material.
    Type: Application
    Filed: September 23, 2021
    Publication date: January 13, 2022
    Applicant: Quantum-Si Incorporated
    Inventors: Michael Bellos, Faisal R. Ahmad, James Beach, Michael Coumans, Sharath Hosali, Ali Kabiri, Kyle Preston, Gerard Schmid, Bing Shen, Jonathan M. Rothberg
