Calculation of light propagation in the phantom

In recent decades, the ILM has established a large number of numerical and analytical solutions to Maxwell's equations, the radiative transfer equation and diffusion theory for calculating the propagation of light in scattering media. These can be used, for example, to calculate the propagation of light from a source through the medium to the 

detector or the light distribution in the medium can be calculated. You can benefit from this expertise by allowing us to simulate and analyse your problem. In particular, the light propagation in the phantom material can be calculated and compared with real sensor data. This simulation data can also be used to calibrate your sensor.

Possible areas of application / questions

  • Optimisation or layout of your sensor design 

    • Optimisation of the signal-to-noise ratio

    • Optimisation of the sensor arrangement to solve specific measurement tasks

    • Preliminary or feasibility study for a specific sensor design

    • Performance calibration of your sensor (e.g. reflection sensor) by pre-calculating the expected signal on the phantom and comparing it with the measurement.

  • Calculation of the penetration depth of the light or answering the question of which partial volume the measured signal mainly originates from

  • Investigation of the influence of multilayer systems on the measurement signal

  • Prediction of optical effects of inclusions
