    Abstract: An optical computing device comprising a plurality of electromagnetic radiation sources, each at a unique angular displacement about an optical train and each at at least one unique electromagnetic radiation wavelength; an integrated computational element (ICE) located in the optical train before or after a sample located in the optical train to generate modified electromagnetic radiation in the optical train; a broadband angle-selective filter (BASF) located in the optical train that is rotatable about an axis to a plurality of unique orientations to transmit the electromagnetic radiation and/or the modified electromagnetic radiation in the optical train at a target incident angle corresponding to one of the plurality of electromagnetic radiation sources to generate angle selected-modified electromagnetic radiation (ASMR); and a detector to receive the ASMR and to generate an output signal corresponding to a characteristic of the sample.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for manufacturing optical computing elements, including a method for correcting element layer thickness measurements during manufacturing that includes depositing an element layer on a glass substrate or a previously deposited layer, illuminating the deposited layer and sampling reflected or transmitted light produced by said illuminating, detecting and measuring an actual magnitude of the sampled light as a function of wavelength, and modeling the sampled light to produce a predicted magnitude of the sampled light. The method further includes determining a discrepancy between the actual and predicted magnitudes, adjusting the actual magnitude based on said discrepancy, calculating the thickness of the deposited layer based upon the adjusted actual magnitude of the sampled light, and adjusting the deposited layer's thickness if the calculated thickness is not within a tolerance range of a target thickness.

    Abstract: Systems and methods of controlling a deposition rate during thin-film fabrication are provided. A system as provided may include a chamber, a material source contained within the chamber, an electrical component to activate the material source, a substrate holder to support the multilayer stack and at least one witness sample. The system may further include a measurement device and a computational unit. The material source provides a layer of material to the multilayer stack and to the witness sample at a deposition rate controlled at least partially by the electrical component and based on a correction value obtained in real-time by the computational unit. In some embodiments, the correction value is based on a measured value provided by the measurement device and a computed value provided by the computational unit according to a model.

    Abstract: The subject disclosure provides for a method of optical sensor calibration implemented with neural networks through machine learning to make real-time optical fluid answer product prediction adapt to optical signal variation of synthetic and actual sensor inputs integrated from multiple sources. Downhole real-time fluid analysis can be performed by monitoring the quality of the prediction with each type of input and determining which type of input generalizes better. The processor can bypass the less robust routine and deploy the more robust routine for remainder of the data prediction. Operational sensor data can be incorporated from a particular optical tool over multiple field jobs into an updated calibration when target fluid sample compositions and properties become available. Reconstructed fluid models adapted to prior field job data, in the same geological or geographical area, can maximize the likelihood of quality prediction on future jobs and optimize regional formation sampling and testing applications.
