  7. Multi-Sensing Principle • Sensor array concept. • Each section is made of porous silicon with a different functionality. • White light is collimated to illuminate the entire sample. • The reflected light from all the sections is measured simultaneously in a non-imaging configuration using a single detector. • The obtained spectrum consists of many overlapping interference spectra each reflected from a different sensor section.
