Abstract

An optical detector for particles is provided, including: a channel configured to receive a fluid including at least one particle and to receive at least one incident light ray; a detection system including a plurality of photodetectors, each photodetector being configured to receive light rays coming from the channel and diffused by the at least one particle; and an angular filtering system including a plurality of angular filtering devices each associated with a photodetector of the plurality of photodetectors, each angular filtering device being configured to angularly filter the light rays coming from the channel before reception thereof by the photodetector with which it is associated.
