Abstract: An apparatus, includes an illuminating light source and illuminating optics arranged to illuminate a sample region with illuminating light pulses, light gathering optics to gather Raman scattered light pulses from the sample region, a spectral disperser and a detector array for measuring the spectral intensity distribution of Raman scattered light pulses obtained from the sample region and an auxiliary detector for providing an indicator signal indicative of elastic scattering coefficient of the sample region. The apparatus is arranged to form a first output spectrum from the spectral intensity distribution of a first group of Raman scattered light pulses. The pulses of the first group of Raman scattered light pulses are obtained from the sample region when the indicator signal indicates that an object is located in the sample region.

Abstract: An apparatus for measuring time-resolved optical spectrum includes a light source, a sensor for collecting, forming, manipulating and measuring the intensity of the optical radiation, and a controller coupled to the light source and sensor. The sensor includes at least one optical delay element to provide a time delay to a first portion of the optical radiation. The sensor arrangement further includes an optical spectral disperser to split the delayed first portion and the second portion of the optical radiation into dispersed radiation having a plurality of wavelengths, and a sensor element configured to receive each wavelength of the dispersed radiation on a different spatial region, and measure the light intensity associated with each wavelength of the dispersed radiation. The controller collects the light intensity associated with each wavelength of the dispersed radiation measured by the sensor element to form a time-resolved optical spectrum.

Abstract: An apparatus for measuring a spectrum (RM(λ)) of Raman-scattered light (LB2). The apparatus includes a light source (LS1) configured to provide illuminating light pulses (LB1), and an optical probe to guide the illuminating light pulses to a sample region (REG1) and cause excitation of Raman-scattered light in the sample region. The optical probe includes a waveguiding core surrounded by a cladding. The waveguiding core has a first facet (SRF1) and a second facet (SRF2) such that the first facet is arranged to gather the Raman-scattered light from the sample region. The apparatus further includes a spectrometer, and a focusing unit (SF2) that is configured to guide the gathered Raman-scattered light from the second facet to the spectrometer. The spectrometer includes a detector array (ARR1) that is arranged to measure a spectrum (RM(λ)) of the Raman-scattered light by using time gated detection.
