Abstract: A system including a light source, sampling tray, and a plurality of fiber optics positioned to achieve high contrast to improve accuracy and eliminate the need to rotate the sample. A composite light image from the fiber optics is fed to a spectrometer which converts the reflected light into a fingerprint corresponding to the concentration of at least one substance in the sample. The fingerprint is processed by a statistical model to determine concentration level of the at least one substance in the sample and the concentration level is then displayed.

Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting early stage dental caries and decays are provided. In particular, in an embodiment, laser-induced autofluorescence (AF) from multiple excitation wavelengths is obtained and analyzed. Endogenous fluorophores residing in the enamel naturally fluoresce when illuminated by wavelengths ranging from ultraviolet into the visible spectrum. The relative intensities of the AF emission changes between different excitation wavelengths when the enamel changes from healthy to demineralized. By taking a ratio of AF emission spectra integrals between different excitation wavelengths, a standard is created wherein changes in AF ratios within a tooth are quantified and serve as indicators of early stage enamel demineralization. The techniques described herein may be used in conjunction with a scanning fiber endoscope (SFE) to provide a reliable, safe and low-cost means for identifying dental caries or decays.

Abstract: A device and method for identifying solid and liquid materials use near-infrared transmission spectroscopy combined with multivariate calibration methods for analysis of the spectral data. Near-infrared transmission spectroscopy is employed within either the 700-1100 nm or the 900-1700 nm wavelength range to identify solid or liquid materials and determine whether they match specific known materials. Uses include identifying solid (including powdered) and liquid materials with a fast measurement cycle time of about 2 to 15 seconds and with a method that requires no sample preparation, as well as quantitative analysis to determine the concentration of one or more chemical components in a solid or liquid sample that consists of a mixture of components. A primary application of such analysis includes detection of counterfeit drug tablets, capsules and liquid medications.

Abstract: A method of generating laser pulses (1) includes: creating a circulating light field in resonator device (11) having resonator length L and an intra-cavity dispersion and configured for supporting light field resonator modes, and generating a pulse train of laser pulses (1) by a mode-locking mechanism. Laser pulses (1) are generated with a repetition frequency and provide a frequency comb with carrier frequency ωo and comb modes in frequency space. The intra-cavity dispersion is selected such that round trip phases ϕ have a dependency on frequency ω according to φ ( ω ) = π m ( 1 + 4 ω - ω 0 m ω r - 1 ) + L c ω 0 wherein m is an integer providing effective repetition rate (mωr) in combination with mode spacing ωr at optical carrier frequency (ωo), and the mode-locking mechanism provides a coupling of the resonator modes whereby frequency difference (Δn=ωn+1−ωn) between neighboring mode frequencies (ωn, ωn+1) is a linear function of mode frequency number n. Furthermore, a spectroscopy method for investigating a sample, a laser pulse source apparatus and a spectroscopy apparatus are described.
