Suppressing stray light
Optical baffles and sensor interiors are designed to manage the light that should not reach the detector. Low-reflectance ultrablack surfaces can help reduce internal reflections and scattered background signal.
Why geometry helps baffles
Microstructured surfaces give incoming light more opportunities to be absorbed before it returns to the optical path. That makes geometry-driven ultrablack materials a natural fit for systems where glints and internal bounce paths degrade data quality.
