Granted: 2007-02-14
Abstract: In order to determine whether a blue-to-green diamond (1) has been artificially irradiated or ion bombarded to change its colour, it is irradiated with light of 633 nm wavelength in order to stimulate the emission of luminescence, and luminescence from about 680 to about 800 nm is detected using a confocal microscope (3) and a spectrometer (8) as the focal plane (9) is scanned vertically through the diamond (1). A rapid decrease in luminescence with increase in depth indicates natural irradiation whilst a more rapid decrease indicates ion bombardment. Alternatively, in order to determine whether a diamond (1) is a natural/synthetic doublet, it is irradiated with radiation of 325 nm wavelength in order to stimulate the emission of luminescence, and luminescence from 330 to 450 nm is detected. An abrupt change in luminescence with increase in depth indicates that the diamond is a natural/synthetic doublet.

Abstract: An optical sensor device for determining the presence or concentration of an analyte, contains a waveguide disposed over a light source and a light detector mounted on a surface of a substrate and separated by an internal baffle, wherein the waveguide has a thickness corresponding to a far field emission point of the light source as determined by a light shielding baffle between the light source and light detector. An analyte indicator matrix is disposed on the outer surface of the waveguide. The sensor device geometry takes advantage of only direct illumination of the indicator matrix, and direct collection of indicator matrix illumination, without any significant reflection by said waveguide. Undesirable light noise generated by the light source passes directly out of the device through the waveguide.
