Systems and methods for self-referenced detection and imaging of sample arrays

Abstract:

A system for detecting an array of samples having detectable samples and at least one reference sample is provided. The system comprises an electromagnetic radiation source, a sensing surface comprising a plurality of sample fields, wherein the plurality of sample fields comprise at least one reference field, a phase difference generator configured to introduce differences in pathlengths of one or more samples in the array of samples, and an imaging spectrometer configured to image one or more samples in the array of samples.
