    Abstract: Provided is a technique capable of reducing an influence of an inter-beam phase difference unrelated to a defect and accurately detecting even a defect having a low aspect ratio by a defect inspection device using differential interference contrast. To achieve the above purpose, provided is the defect inspection device using differential interference contrast that inspects a specimen using light. The defect inspection device includes: a light source configured to emit a light beam; a polarized light separation element configured to split the light beam into a first beam and a second beam which are polarized and orthogonal to each other; a sensor configured to detect a signal from the first beam and the second beam reflected from the specimen; and a processing processor configured to process the signal detected by the sensor. The processing processor uses a signal string obtained based on information around a measured point to be measured on the specimen to correct a measured signal at the measured point.

    Abstract: An optical sensor for spectroscopic analysis of a sample, the optical sensor comprising: a photonic integrated chip (PIC) for providing light to the sample, the PIC comprising: one or more laser(s) designed to operate at one or more respective predetermined wavelength(s), each of the one or more laser(s) having an output that is optically coupled to an optical output of the PIC; and a monitor located on the PIC for determining the wavelength of the optical output; the optical sensor further comprising: a detector for collecting a spectrum from the sample; and one or more processors configured to: compare the wavelength of the laser(s) at the optical output with each of their respective predetermined wavelength(s); and if a deviation above a certain threshold is detected between the wavelength of the laser(s) and the predetermined wavelength(s), adapt the collected spectrum to generate a reconstructed spectrum; and use one or more datapoints from the reconstructed spectrum for the spectroscopic analysis.

    Abstract: A gas analysis system, includes: a light-emitting element that emits a laser light modulated by a predetermined modulation frequency; and a light-receiving element that: receives the laser light that has passed through a measurement target gas; and upon receiving the laser light, outputs a received signal having an N-frequency that is n times the predetermined modulation frequency, wherein n is an integer no less than 2; and a signal processing device that: calculates a third component by removing, from a first component having the N-frequency, a second component, wherein the second component is a component of optical interference noise arising on an optical path of the laser light from the light-emitting element to the light-receiving element and has the same frequency as the first component; and calculates, based on a magnitude of the third component, a concentration of the measurement target gas.
