Abstract:
The invention relates to a method and to a device for using partially non-stabilized broadband light sources to accurately measure partially broadband-absorbing substances using referencing measuring cells. In order to create a low-cost, high-resolution, and at the same time fast spectrographic device for measuring concentrations of substances in fluid or gaseous media that is also suitable for harsh environments, the light radiated by the broadband light sources (1) through light guiding optical systems is fed through the measuring section of the self-referencing measuring cell (20, 30, 40) or only partially through a measuring cell (10) to a measurement detector (photoreceptor 11) and partially through a reference path (optical waveguide 8) to a reference detector (photoreceptor 15), and a mode coupler (5, 9, 14) is associated with each optical waveguide (2, 4, 7, 8) in order to homogenize the radiation characteristic of the broadband light sources (1), which varies over time and space.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a spatial filter measuring arrangement (1) and a spatial filter measuring device (2) comprising at least one sensor (4, 5; 41I-41IV; 51) and a spatial filter, wherein electromagnetic radiation, in particular light, that is emitted or reflected by a measurement object (13), is imaged onto the sensor (4, 5; 41I-41IV; 51, 52) by means of the spatial filter. The invention further relates to a method for spatial filter measurement. The spatial filter measuring arrangement according to the invention is further developed in that the spatial filter is designed as a micro-mirror array which has mirror elements (21-21′″) which can be moved about respective angular positions.
