Abstract: A curved mirrored surface is used to collect radiation scattered by a sample surface and originating from a normal illumination beam and an oblique illumination beam. The collected radiation is focused to a detector. Scattered radiation originating from the normal and oblique illumination beams may be distinguished by employing radiation at two different wavelengths, by intentionally introducing an offset between the spots illuminated by the two beams or by switching the normal and oblique illumination beams on and off alternately. Beam position error caused by change in sample height may be corrected by detecting specular reflection of an oblique illumination beam and changing the direction of illumination in response thereto. Butterfly-shaped spatial filters may be used in conjunction with curved mirror radiation collectors to restrict detection to certain azimuthal angles.

Abstract: A method and a low-cost, robust and simple system for remote sensing and analyzing spectral properties of targets as a means to detect and identify them is introduced. The system can be highly portable but is usable in fixed locations or combination thereof. An aspect of the method and system includes the capability to distribute, modulate, aperture and spectrally analyze radiation emitted or absorbed by a volumetric target chemical species (solid, liquid or gas) or a target surface. Radiation is first collected by a single light gathering device, such as a lens, telescope, or mirror, and then distributed to multiple detectors through spectrally discriminating components and if desired through apertures to achieve this desired detection and identification.

Abstract: In a self-referencing instrument for measuring electromagnetic radiation, a mounting member to which a sample can be coupled moves the sample such that, in a first position, the electromagnetic radiation impinges on the sample, and, in a second position, the electromagnetic radiation does not impinge on the sample. A detection unit receives the electromagnetic radiation from the sample and generates a sample signal when the sample is in the first position, and the detection unit receives the electromagnetic radiation from the source and generates a reference signal when the sample is in the second position. A processor coupled to the detection unit processes the reference signal and the sample signal. This results in a continuous, accurate reference measurement, and permits the instrument to efficiently compensate for error, while offering accurate measurements.

Abstract: Fluorescence emitted from a tissue can be detected efficiently, and excitation light with a plurality of wavelengths can be simultaneously emitted to simultaneously detect fluorescence with a plurality of wavelengths. A laser-scanning fluoroscopy apparatus includes a laser light source of a plurality of wavelengths; a spectroscopic device for splitting laser beams according to wavelength; a focusing lens for focusing the split laser beams; and a wavelength-selecting reflection device which includes a plurality of reflection sections disposed near the focal positions, spaced out at predetermined intervals in a split direction to reflect the laser beams with different wavelengths and a transmission section arranged adjacent to the reflection sections. The laser-scanning fluoroscopy apparatus further includes a diffraction grating for combining the reflected laser beams; a scanning section for two-dimensionally scanning the combined laser beams; an objective optical system for focusing the scanned laser beams onto a tissue; and a photodetector for detecting fluorescence emitted from the tissue. A width dimension, as measured along the split direction, of each reflection section of the wavelength-selecting reflection device is smaller than a width dimension of the transmission section.
