Abstract: A Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR) includes: an infrared light source; an interferometer; a semiconductor laser for position reference of a movable mirror thereof; and a computer that performs Fourier transformation to a detected signal of an infrared interference wave from a sample to calculate a spectrum based on a memorized wavelength of the semiconductor laser and a detected value of a laser interference wave by a laser detector. The computer executes a program for calculating a spectrum of a solid reference sample, interpolating the spectrum of the reference sample in a wavenumber region of a unique peak, reading out a wavenumber of the unique peak based on a data after interpolation, and updating the wavelength of the semiconductor laser used in Fourier transformation such that the read-out value of the wavenumber falls within a specific range having an original wavenumber of the unique peak as a reference.

Abstract: To provide a total reflection measurement device that can improve a light utilization rate more than a Cassegrain type objective mirror, is capable of total reflection measurement at low magnification, and can maintain compatibility with a conventional objective mirror. The device (1) includes: a pair of plane mirrors (2a, 2b) disposed on a central axis (P1); a pair of intermediate mirrors (4a, 4b) opposing to the plane mirrors (2a, 2b), respectively; a pair of ellipsoidal mirrors (6a, 6b) opposing to the intermediate mirrors (4a, 4b), respectively; and an ATR crystal (8) provided at a position nearer to the sample side than the pair of plane mirrors (2a, 2b) on the central axis (P1). The ellipsoidal mirrors (6a, 6b) are provided so that each one focal position (C1) formed by the intermediate mirror (4a, 4b) and the plane mirror (2a, 2b) are at same position on the central axis (P1), and each another focal position (C2) formed by only the intermediate mirror (4a, 4b) are also at same position on the central axis (P1). Further, the another focal position (C2) coincides with a boundary surface between the ATR crystal (8) and the sample.

Abstract: The present invention provides a total reflection prism that can be used in multiple reflection method and that can make the contact area with the sample small. A total reflection prism is made of a plate-shaped optical member, has a leading-in part and a leading-out part of a measurement light provided at positions deviated from the center of either of the front and back surfaces, and has a plurality of plane parts that are formed perpendicularly to the front and back surfaces respectively on an outer periphery of the prism excluding the front and back surfaces of the prism. The leading-in part is provided to irradiate the measurement light that is guided inside at an angle of incidence of total reflection toward either of the front and back surfaces. The front and back surfaces are provided so that the measurement light travels while totally reflected alternately.

Abstract: An ATR optical instrument condensing an infrared light to a sample-side surface of a ATR crystal to measure a total reflection absorption spectrum includes: an incident-side ellipsoidal mirror condensing the infrared light to the sample-side surface at an incident angle equal to or larger than a critical angle θc inside; an exiting-side ellipsoidal mirror condensing a total reflection light from the sample-side surface; dichroic mirrors guiding an illumination light coaxially to the ellipsoidal mirrors; and a ZnS lens condensing a visible light from the sample-side surface to observe a contact state of the sample. The dichroic mirrors are configured to guide the illumination light to the ellipsoidal mirrors such that the illumination light is condensed to the sample-side surface at an angle less that a critical angle θc′ of the visible light. Accordingly, the ATR optical instrument becomes compact, and can visually observe the contact state of the sample surface.

Abstract: An infrared spectrometer includes: an openable sealed housing that houses optical components; an infrared light source that irradiates an infrared light into the housing; a dehumidifying agent that dehumidifies an inside of the housing; a thermos-hygro sensor that detects a humidity inside the housing; and a light source control apparatus that controls power supply to the infrared light source. The light source control apparatus: starts the infrared light source while limiting power supply to the infrared light source; determines presence/absence of a risk of condensation inside the sealed housing based on detected value of humidity detected while power is supplied to the infrared light source; if the risk of condensation is present, balances a rate of increase of the detected value of humidity and a rate of decrease of humidity, and at the same time, increases power supply to the infrared light source gradually.
