Abstract: A spectroscopic module 1 is provided with a spectroscopic unit 8 and a photodetector 9 in addition to a spectroscopic unit 7 and a photodetector 4 and thus can enhance its detection sensitivity for light in a wide wavelength range or different wavelength regions of light. A light-transmitting hole 4b is disposed between light detecting portions 4a, 9a, while a reflection unit 6 is provided so as to oppose a region R in a light-absorbing substrate 2, whereby the size can be kept from becoming larger. Ambient light La is absorbed by the region R in the substrate 2. Any part of the light La transmitted through the region R in the substrate 2 is reflected to the region R by the unit 6 formed so as to oppose the region R, whereby stray light can be inhibited from being caused by the incidence of the light La.

Abstract: A spectrometric measurement apparatus includes a light radiation unit for radiating light onto a medium; a hole array including openings arranged one-dimensionally for transmitting diffusion light from the medium; an imaging optical system configured to focus an image from the hole array; a diffraction element configured to diffract the light for focusing the image; and a light receiving unit including pixels arranged one-dimensionally configured to receive the light that has been dispersed by the diffraction element and spectrometric sensors each corresponding to a predetermined number of the pixels. The light transmitted through each of the openings of the hole array is dispersed by the diffraction element, and then the light enters the pixels so that spectral properties of the diffusion light are acquired. The structure of the diffraction element includes variations that are formed in accordance with the height of the image that is focused by the imaging optical system.

Abstract: In a spectroscopic module 1, a flange 7 is formed integrally with a diffraction layer 6 along a periphery thereof so as to become thicker than the diffraction layer 6. As a consequence, at the time of releasing a master mold used for forming the diffraction layer 6 and flange 7, the diffraction layer 6 formed along a convex curved surface 3a of a main unit 3 can be prevented from peeling off from the curved surface 3a together with the master mold. A diffraction grating pattern 9 is formed so as to be eccentric with respect to the center of the diffraction layer 6 toward a predetermined side. Therefore, releasing the mold earlier from the opposite side of the diffraction layer 6 than the predetermined side thereof can prevent the diffraction layer 6 from peeling off and the diffraction grating pattern 9 from being damaged.
