    Abstract: A spectral image acquiring apparatus includes an optical filter on which light is incident; an image sensor including a two-dimensionally disposed pixel array for detecting the light via the optical filter; and a signal processing unit generating a difference-value image based on a detection signal from the image sensor. The optical filter includes a diffraction grating having a lattice pattern corresponding to one or more pixels on the image sensor. The signal processing unit calculates a difference value in an amount of received light between two adjacent pixels based on the detection signal from the image sensor, and generates the difference-value image based on the difference value. The difference value between the two adjacent pixels is varied depending on a difference in an interference point on the image sensor corresponding to a diffraction angle of the light that has passed through the diffraction grating.

    Abstract: An apparatus for phase detection of Raman scattered light emitted from a sample includes a first polarizer positioned along a first optical path containing a first beam and a second polarizer positioned along a second optical path containing a second beam. The first polarizer and second polarizer polarize the first beam and the second beam in one of mutually perpendicular and mutually parallel first and second directions. The apparatus also includes an optical phase modulator positioned along the second optical path to controllably modulate a phase of the second beam, a beam splitter positioned to join the first beam and the second beam together, and a spectrometer to receive the joined first beam and second beam and to measure a phase shift of the first beam and the second beam.

The normal incidence broadband spectroscopic polarimeter can make the probe beam normal incidence and focus on the sample surface by using at least one flat reflector element to change propagation direction of the focused beam. Moreover, the normal incidence broadband spectroscopic polarimeter contains at least one polarizer as to measure the anisotropy or non-uniform samples, such as three-dimensional profile and material optical constants of thin films consisting of the periodic structure. An optical measurement system including the normal incidence broadband spectroscopic polarimeter is also provided.
