    Abstract: A system and method for locating and identifying unknown samples. A targeting mode may be utilized to scan regions of interest for potential unknown materials. This targeting mode may interrogate regions of interest using SWIR and/or fluorescence spectroscopic and imaging techniques. Unknown samples detected in regions of interest may be further interrogated using a combination of Raman and LIBS techniques to identify the unknown samples. Structured illumination may be used to interrogate an unknown sample. Data sets generated during interrogation may be compared to a reference database comprising a plurality of reference data sets, each associated with a known material. The system and method may be used to identify a variety of materials including: biological, chemical, explosive, hazardous, concealment, and non-hazardous materials.

    Abstract: A particle detection method for matching particles detected in two scans of a surface taken at different times in which particles having a light scattering intensity above a collection threshold are first detected and the measured position and scattering intensity therefor stored in a computer memory. Corresponding first and second measured positions from the respective first and second scans are determined by forming a triangle from selected first detected particles and finding those second detected particles which form a variant triangle with matching perimeter and area. From these matching first and second particles a transformation is found for mapping first measured positions to corresponding second positions and vice versa. Areas around corresponding positions of particles having a scattering intensity above a display threshold are examined for matching particles. If not found, the area is reexamined at a reduced threshold. Matching particles are considered to be the same, while unmatched particles are considered to be either added or removed. The method provides an accurate count of particles for process contamination analysis.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a light beam measuring instrument that can securely receive light reflected by a sample. The light beam measuring instrument 1 includes an optical axis tilting mechanism 13 that includes a first tilting mechanism 131 and a second tilting mechanism 132. From the optical axis A1 of irradiation light beam emitted from a light beam source 112, the first tilting mechanism 131 tilts the optical axis A1 about the first tilting axis T1. The second tilting mechanism 132 tilts the optical axis A1 about the second tilting axis T2. The light beam measuring instrument 1 can receive the light reflected by the semiconductor chip C by means of operation of the optical axis tilting mechanism 13 even if the light reflected by the semiconductor chip C is tilted. Accordingly, this apparatus can securely perform measurement or inspection using the light beam.

    Abstract: There is provided a method of avoiding deterioration of the accuracy in the number of detected light-emitting particles due to that two or more light-emitting particles are encompassed at a time in the light detection region in the scanning molecule counting method using an optical measurement with a confocal microscope or a multiphoton microscope. In the inventive optical analysis technique, in the detection of an individual signal indicating light of a light-emitting particle by selectively detecting a signal having an intensity beyond a threshold value as a signal indicating light of a light-emitting particle in light intensity data produced through measuring light intensity during moving the position of a light detection region in a sample solution, the threshold value is set so that a signal indicating light from a light-emitting particle encompassed in a region narrower than the light detection region will be detected selectively.

    Abstract: The subject invention discloses a method and apparatus for evaluating both the thickness and compositional variables in a layered or thin film sample. Two independent detection systems are provided for measuring thermal waves generated in a sample by a periodic, localized heating. One detection system is of the type that generates output signals that are primarily a function of the surface temperature of the sample. The other detection system generates signals that are primarily a function of the integral of the temperature beneath the sample surface. The two independent thermal wave measurements permit analysis of both thickness and compositional variables. An apparatus is disclosed wherein both detection systems can be implemented efficiently within one apparatus.

    Abstract: A method for microphotometering individual volume elements of a microscope specimen 10, comprising generating a luminous dot or cursor and progressively illuminating a plurality of part elements in the focal plane 11 of the microscope through the specimen. The mutual position between the specimen and the focal plane is then changed and a plurality of part elements in the focal plane are illuminated. Reflected and/or fluorescent light and transmitted light respectively created by the illumination is collected, detected and stored for generating a three-dimensional image of that part of the specimen composed of the volume elements. Illumination of multiples of part elements is implemented by deflecting the cursor and/or by moving the specimen. The change in the relative mutual position between the specimen and the focal plane of the microscope is effected either by displacing the specimen or the objective. Apparatus for carrying out the method include a specimen table 301, a microscope objective and light source 31-32-33. The table or the objective are arranged for stepwise movement along the main axis of the microscope synchronously with punctilinear light scanning of the specimen. The table is arranged for stepwise movement at right angles to the main axis and/or the light source is arranged for deflection over the focal plane 21 through the specimen.
