Abstract: To provide a microspectroscope that can perform a wide range mapping measurement with high sensitivity, at high speed, and with high wavelength resolution.The Raman spectroscope comprises: a unit for linearly irradiating excitation light; a movable stage for a sample; an objective lens for focusing Raman light from the linear irradiation region; an incident slit provided at the imaging position of Raman light; a spectrometer for diffusing the passing light; a CCD detector for detecting Raman spectral image; and a control device for controlling the mapping measurement by synchronizing the movable stage and the CCD detector. The control device controls the movable stage to move in the direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the linear irradiation light and obtain one average spectrum. At the same time, the control device is configured to perform the cycle of the CCD detector While the stage is moving to obtain one average spectrum of the moving region of the linear irradiation region in one light detection cycle.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to photoreceivers, such as photodiodes. In one embodiment, an integrated circuit device comprises a photodiode, and an electrode arranged over or on top of the photodiode. The electrode is substantially transparent or otherwise exhibits a lower absorption rate, such that light or other radiation can pass through the electrode to the photodiode. Varying a charge applied to the electrode enables the spectral sensitivity of the underlying photodiode to be altered, tuned or otherwise adjusted.

Abstract: The invention provides a dynamically swept tunable laser system and method for measuring sensor characteristics obtained from an array of optical sensors comprising means for dividing the total wavelength sweep of the laser into different regions in any particular order where each region contains single or multiple contiguous sweep segments and where each sweep segment is referenced by a start and a stop reference and can have different lengths compared to the other sweep segments. The sensor characteristics are determined from each region swept by the tunable laser. The invention provides for the tunable laser to be adapted to operate in a quasi-continuous mode to select segments in any order. The relative sweep rates of regions can be changed such that some regions can be swept more times than other regions.

Abstract: Portable analytical equipment, systems, methods, and techniques related thereto is disclosed. Portable analytical equipment can comprise a controller and a probe. The probe can interrogate a sample and receive a response to the interrogation. The controller can select and/or initiate an analysis related to interrogating the sample via the probe. The analysis can be selected from a portfolio of analyses stored on the controller. The controller can analyze the response to the interrogation based on reference data stored on the controller. The controller can determine an indication based on the analyzing the response for presentation via a low-power interface, which can comprise an LED or electrophoretic element. The controller can further be connected to an external device, e.g., a smartphone or remote PC, to present collected data and the analyzing of the response to the interrogation. The disclosed subject matter can be employed in hand-held analytical equipment, e.g., a hand-held Raman spectrometer.

Abstract: Methods and systems for spectrometer dark correction are described which achieve more stable baselines, especially towards the edges where intensity correction magnifies any non-zero results of dark subtraction, and changes in dark current due to changes in temperature of the camera window frame are typically more pronounced. The resulting induced curvature of the baseline makes quantitation difficult in these regions. Use of the invention may provide metrics for the identification of system failure states such as loss of camera vacuum seal, drift in the temperature stabilization, and light leaks. In system aspects of the invention, a processor receives signals from a light detector in the spectrometer and executes software programs to calculate spectral responses, sum or average results, and perform other operations necessary to carry out the disclosed methods. In most preferred embodiments, the light signals received from a sample are used for Raman analysis.

Abstract: A multi-mode imaging spectrometer that incorporates two orthogonally positioned entrance slits and is configurable between a first mode in which the system produces images of relatively wide spatial coverage with moderate spectral resolution, using a first one of the two slits, and a second mode in which the system produces images of a smaller spatial area with fine spectral resolution, using the other one of the two slits.

Abstract: A spectroscopic measurement apparatus includes a wavelength variable interference filter and a driving circuit. The wavelength variable interference filter includes a fixed reflection film, a movable reflection film that faces the fixed reflection film, and an electrostatic actuator that changes a distance between the fixed reflection film and the movable reflection film. The driving circuit drives the electrostatic actuator in such a way that the distance between the fixed reflection film and the movable reflection film changes at a uniform velocity.

Abstract: A system and method of optical spectrum analysis that circumvents the trade-off between resolution and sensitivity by combining two spectral measurements: a first spectrum (102) from first spectral measurement means (240), having high resolution and low sensitivity; and a second spectrum (103) from second spectral measurement means (220), having lower resolution but higher resolution. The input of the of the first spectral measurement means (240) is amplified by an optical amplifier (230), being the effects induced by said amplifier (230) on the first spectrum (102) corrected at processing means (270) by comparison with the second spectrum (103).
