Abstract: A method includes directing a portion of a laser beam output from a laser along a secondary beam path toward a detector, the secondary beam path being distinct from a main beam path of the laser beam; generating a bandwidth selective interference pattern of the laser beam on the detector; detecting, at the detector, a width of a fringe within the interference pattern to thereby measure measuring a bandwidth of the laser beam; and homogenizing the laser beam traveling along the secondary beam path prior to generation of the bandwidth selective interference pattern. The homogenizing includes diffusing the laser beam; and introducing a time dependent, position dependent, or both time and position dependent random modulation to the wavefront of the laser beam to reduce fluctuations in the detected fringe width and to reduce the influence of spatial coherence of the laser beam on the detected interference pattern.

Abstract: The arrangement for examining microscope preparations with a scanning microscope comprises a laser (1) and an optical means (12) which images the light generated by the laser (1) onto a specimen (13) that is to be examined. Provided between the laser (1) and the optical means (12) is an optical component (3, 20) that spectrally spreads, with a single pass, the light generated by the laser (1). The optical component (3, 20) is made of photonic band-gap material. It is particularly advantageous if the photonic band-gap material is configured as a light-guiding fiber (20).

Abstract: A method and apparatus in which a first absorption measurement is made over a first frequency interval or set of frequency intervals including one or more absorptions from a spectral band of interest. The first absorption measurement is ideally selected to be near the frequency of a peak in the absorption spectrum, providing high sensitivity at low gas concentrations. A second absorption measurement is made over a second frequency interval. The second absorption measurement is made to include a contribution from the broadening of the absorption spectrum at higher concentrations. The second absorption measurement provides sensitivity at higher concentrations. The two absorption measurements are then combined to deduce the target sample concentration as the absorption line spectrum changes shape with concentration.
