Abstract:
The adjustable beam splitter for monochromatic light sources is designed to vary the wavelength in conjunction with a linear scale over the entire working range of wavelengths. Light from the source passes through an aperture (S1) to a plane mirror (M1) and concave mirror (M2) to the splitter prism (10). The prism is mounted on a rotating platform moved by a lever (13) to which are attached cam followers (14, 15). The innermost follower runs over the profile of a large cam to cover the 400 to 3000 nm wavelength range. The cam has a notch which allows the second follower wheel to come into operation in conjunction with a second, smaller cam (18) covering the 180 to 400 nm range. Both cams carry toothed wheels (20, 21) which are in constant mesh with each other.
Abstract:
A double-beam spectrophotometer comprising a light source, a monochromator, optical means for causing the monochromatic light beam from the monochromator to alternately advance along a pair of optical paths, the axes of which intersect generally perpendicularly to each other, a pair of cells each disposed in one of the two optical paths, and a photoelectric detector disposed at or adjacent the point of intersection of the pair of optical paths.

Abstract:
Optical waveguide paths to observe a sample on a sample holder from a plurality of directions while guiding an image of light in each direction which is emitted out of the sample toward a direction of a two dimensional detector via a main imaging lens include an optical waveguide path which never receives the light directly from the sample. The optical waveguide path which never receives the light directly from the sample forms an image of the sample within a substantial focus range of the main imaging lens, and includes optical elements arranged such that a light beam after formation of the image proceeds toward a direction of the main imaging lens. Optical elements on at least one optical waveguide path are those for forming real images. Therefore, the main imaging lens images the sample and those real images in block on the two dimentional detector.
