    Abstract: A device, for emitting and controlling infrared light, comprises a substrate extending between a bottom surface and a top surface. A cavity is provided in the substrate, the cavity opening onto the top surface. A light source extends over the cavity and is able to heat up when passed through by an electric current, so as to emit infrared light. A cover covers the substrate, the cover and the substrate forming a first component enclosing the light source. The light source delineates a first half space comprising the cover, and a second half space comprising the cavity and the bottom surface of the substrate.

    Abstract: A multiband IR adjunct (MIRA) sensor to spectroscopically determine the content and the concentration of chemical composition of a targeted object, includes a sensor housing, a first front optics in a first optical channel, a second front optics in the first optical channel, an acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF), a photo detector (PD), a set of back optics in the first optical channel that focuses polarized narrow-band light beams received from the AOTF device onto the PD, the PD converting the polarized narrow-band light beams into an electrical signal, and a data acquisition unit signal-connected to the PD, the data acquisition unit collecting the electrical signals. Multiple optical channels can be provided within the housing to analyze UV/VIS/near infrared (NIR), short-wavelength infrared (SWIR), mid-wavelength infrared (MWIR), and LWIR wavelength ranges respectively.

    Abstract: The disclosure is to provide a practical structure of a pulse spectrometer that transmits pulsed light by dividing it through a plurality of fibers for pulse stretching, and makes the divided light beams overlap in a same region on an irradiation surface. A broadband pulsed light from a pulse light source is divided according to wavelength by an arrayed waveguide grating used as a dividing element, the pulse is then correlated one-to-one between time and wavelength while being transmitted through a bundle fiber, and then emitted through an irradiation unit onto an object. The individual light beams output from the individual cores of the bundle fiber are overlapped by a first lens in a substantially same region on a first plane perpendicular to an optical axis, and an image in the first region is projected by second lenses so as to be emitted on the object.
