摘要:
A spectroscope capable of suppressing the dimension and the cost with avoiding a problem caused by polarization dependency of the diffraction grating. The spectroscope includes a polarizing beam splitter plate 3 that divides the light from an input fiber 1 into a first and a second optical paths and polarizes each light of each optical path having different direction of polarization with each other, a Fresnel rhomb half wave plate 5 that arranges the direction of polarization of the light in the first optical path into that in the second optical path and a plane mirror 4 that deflects the second optical path such that at least a portion of an area where the light through the first optical path is incident on the diffraction grating 6 and an area where the light through the second optical path is incident on the diffraction grating overlap each other.

A detecting device for a spectrophotometer is provided which is capable of exhibiting a sufficient sensitivity and with an adequate linearity over the ultraviolet light, visible light and near-infrared light ranges. The spectrophotometer detecting device includes detectors of a photomultiplier-tube detector, an InGaAs detector and a PbS detector, and a switching device for switching among these detectors. Alternatively, the spectrophotometer may include a single integrating sphere including these three types of detectors placed thereon. The spectrophotometer may further include output conversion means for correcting the output linearity difference among these detectors.
摘要:
A method and a low-cost, robust and simple system for remote sensing and analyzing spectral properties of targets as a means to detect and identify them is introduced. The system can be highly portable but is usable in fixed locations or combination thereof. An aspect of the method and system includes the capability to distribute, modulate, aperture and spectrally analyze radiation emitted or absorbed by a volumetric target chemical species (solid, liquid or gas) or a target surface. Radiation is first collected by a single light gathering device, such as a lens, telescope, or mirror, and then distributed to multiple detectors through spectrally discriminating components and if desired through apertures to achieve this desired detection and identification.

In a self-referencing instrument for measuring electromagnetic radiation, a mounting member to which a sample can be coupled moves the sample such that, in a first position, the electromagnetic radiation impinges on the sample, and, in a second position, the electromagnetic radiation does not impinge on the sample. A detection unit receives the electromagnetic radiation from the sample and generates a sample signal when the sample is in the first position, and the detection unit receives the electromagnetic radiation from the source and generates a reference signal when the sample is in the second position. A processor coupled to the detection unit processes the reference signal and the sample signal. This results in a continuous, accurate reference measurement, and permits the instrument to efficiently compensate for error, while offering accurate measurements.

The present invention relates. to instruments used to analyze materials with light-absorbing properties. More specifically, the invention relates to the use of adjustable optical filters whereby light-absorption can be measured in more detail and with greater variables than what is currently known.
摘要:
A color measurement instrument includes a housing and illuminators, a two-dimensional photodetector array, and an optics system within the housing. A UV filter wheel closes the housing to prevent contaminants from entering the housing. The filter wheel supports UV filters and non-WV glass that can be selectively aligned with the illuminators. The photodetectors can be read in parallel, and each photodetector includes a unique spectral filter. The optics system delivers light from the sample target area equally to each of the photodetectors.

摘要:
Methods and apparatus for contemporaneous measurements of electromagnetic radiation with multiple measuring devices, for producing a high diagnostic sensitivity image while achieving high diagnostic specificity with spectroscopy, for producing illumination for fluorescence/NIR reflectance imaging and white light reflectance imaging, all with the same sensors are disclosed. The method may involve selectively adjusting a gain of an imaging device in at least one wavelength band relative to a gain in at least one other band to produce an optimized image of an object, and may also involve producing a first reflectance signal in a first NIR wavelength band, and producing a second reflectance signal in a second NIR band such that an absorption coefficient ratio of oxyhemoglobin to deoxyhemoglobin in the second wavelength band differs from that in the first wavelength band, to permit the first and second reflectance signals to be used to produce a tissue oxygenation image.
摘要:
An optical pathway of a scanning spectral radiometer for a continuous monitoring of spectral radiation employs a diffuser having an upper source directed surface and a lower sensor directed surface for diffusing radiation incident on the upper surface and transmitting the diffused radiation. An occulting ring laterally surrounds the diffuser. A filter receives the diffused radiation from the light diffuser and passes a predetermined wavelength range. A photodetector is positioned to receive the filtered radiation. The photodetector is positioned at one end of an optical path, with a diffuser being positioned at the other end of the optical path. A collimator is provided between the diffuser and the photodetector, with the optical path extending through the collimator.
