Abstract

Disclosed are optical design techniques for generating environmentally resilient optical elements used in optical computing devices. One method for designing an integrated computational element (ICE) includes generating a plurality of theoretical ICE designs with a design suite stored on a non-transitory, computer-readable medium, each theoretical ICE design being configured to detect a characteristic of interest and comprising one or more layers, sorting the theoretical ICE designs based on performance criteria of each theoretical ICE design and thereby identifying one or more predictive ICE designs, calculating a theoretical effect of a temperature shift on each predictive ICE design, and selecting for fabrication one or more predictive ICE designs based on favorable temperature stability.
