Abstract:
A spectrophotometer capable of measuring a plurality of dispersed beams selectively with a linear array sensor (7, 18), which consists of a single row of sensor members, by discharging beams selectively from the output terminals of optical fibers (3a-3c, 13a, 13b, 21) by means of beam selecting means (8a-8c, SW1, SW2).
Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Strahlungs-Zerhackereinrichtung (85), die zwischen zwei aufeinanderliegenden Teilen angeordnet ist. Die Zerhackerscheibe (85) ist hierbei über eine Achse (87) mit einer Lagervorrichtung (89) gekoppelt, die drei Auflagepunkte (93, 94, 104) aufweist. Durch diese besondere Lagerung wird das Zerhackerrauschen minimiert.

Bei einer rotierenden Modulationseinrichtung für Fotometer sind zur Erzielung eines Abgleichs der Phasen von Meßstrahl und Vergleichsstrahl eine Scheibe mit Öffnungen und ein Konstruktionsteil mit korrespondierenden Öffnungen vorgesehen, wobei Scheibe und Konstruktionsteil relativ zueinander tangential verstellbar sind.
Abstract:
A photometer adapted to receive light deflected from a microscope observation axis (15) to alternatively provide image or wavelength scanning modes. The photometer comprises an entrance axis (29) for light received from the microscope, a pin hole occluder (12) positioned at one end of the entrance axis (29), a detector axis (27) having a detector (18) at one end thereof, and first and second scanning axes (16, 28) selectively connecting the entrance axis (29). The first scanning axis (16) is provided with a first imaging means (14) positioned thereon for imaging the pin hole occluder (12 near said detector (18). The second scanning axis (28) is provided with monochromator means (32) to reflect a single wavelength of light and a second imaging means for imaging the pin hold occluder (12) near the detector (18). The photometer also includes selector means (26) for connecting a chosen scanning axis (16, 28) to said entrance and detector axes (29, 27). By means of this arrangement image scanning' can be performed when said first scanning axis (16) connects said entrance and detector axes (29, 27), and wavelength scanning can be performed when said second scanning axis (28) connects said entrance and detector axes (29, 27).
Abstract:
A system and method for analyzing a sample using Raman spectral light includes a light source, a light detector, a narrow band pass filter and an analyzer. Within the system, excitation light is directed to interrogate the sample. The narrow band pass filter is positioned to receive Raman scattered light produced as a result of the interrogation. The light detector is positioned to receive the Raman scattered light that has passed through the at least one narrow band pass filter. The analyzer contains stored instructions that when executed cause the processor to a) control the light source; and b) process signals produced by the light detector to analyze the sample material, the signals representative of the intensity of the Raman scattered light received by the at least one light detector corresponding to one or more wavenumbers in a high wavenumber region of a Raman signal.
Abstract:
Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy apparatus for use in analysing a sample comprising a sample receiving location 2 for receiving a sample 3 for analysis; an illumination arrangement 4 for directing light towards a received sample; a detector 6 for detecting light reflected by a received sample; and collection optics 5 for directing light reflected by a received sample towards the detector. The illumination arrangement further comprises an interferometer 42 and a half beam block 45a, 45b which is disposed substantially at a focus in the optical path for blocking light which exits the interferometer, passes said focus, and is reflected from re-entering the interferometer. A half beam block 45a may be disposed in the optical path between the interferometer and the light source 41 for blocking light that exits the interferometer back towards the light source and is reflected by the light source from re-entering the interferometer and/or a half beam block 45b may be disposed in the optical path on the opposite side of the interferometer than the light source.
Abstract:
First and second measurement operations are performed according to each of a plurality of geometric conditions while keeping the geometric condition. In the first measurement operation, illumination light is radiated from a first light radiating position toward a measurement target position and spectroscopic measurement is performed on reflected light traveling from the measurement target position toward a first light receiving position. In the second measurement operation, illumination light is radiated from a second light radiating position toward a measurement target position and spectroscopic measurement is performed on reflected light traveling from the measurement target position toward a second light receiving position. The two spectroscopic measurement results are averaged. The second light radiating position and the second light receiving position are respectively disposed symmetrical to the first light radiating position and the first light receiving position with respect to a reference axis.
Abstract:
A concentration correction system includes an infrared detector and components that produce an aggregate emission of infrared radiation. A mirror assembly includes a mirror and is changeable between a correcting configuration and a measuring configuration. In the correcting configuration, the mirror produces a mirror signal incident on the detector. The mirror assembly also obstructs external body infrared radiation from reaching the detector. In the measuring configuration, the mirror assembly allows the external body infrared radiation onto the detector. A concentration correction method includes receiving external body infrared radiation and simultaneously receiving a first portion of the aggregate emission. A measurement value indicative of concentration is recorded from the detector. A second portion of the aggregate emission reflected with the mirror and produces a mirror signal incident on the detector. A correction value corresponding to the mirror signal is recorded from the detector and used to correct the measurement value.
