摘要:
There is provided an optical coherent tomography device capable of enlarging a measurement range by removing the affect of a folded image. The device includes an optical phase modulator (14) enabling operation amplifiers (17, 18) and a calculation control device (21) to measure a first intensity as a cosine function for the wave number and a second intensity as a sine function or inverse code function for the wave number from the intensity of the output light multiplexed by a third coupler (16). The calculation control device (21) is based on a first intensity set and a second intensity set of the output light by the optical phase modulator (14) measured by the operation amplifiers (17, 18) and the like, so as to suppress generation of a folded image and identify reflection or a backscattering position and a reflection intensity or a back scattering intensity of the measurement light for the irradiation direction of the measurement light in the measurement object.
摘要:
An OCT technique that permits tomographic observation of biological body parts that are difficult to restrain, and also provides a tomographic observation technique for the observation of a constrainable part that does not require constraint and thus removes a burden on the biological body. A wavelength-tunable light generator (wavelength-tunable light source) is employed as the light source of the optical coherence tomography device. The wavelength-tunable light generator has a wave number tunable range width of at least 4.7×10−2 μm−1 and an emitted-light frequency width of no more than 13 GHz, for example, and is capable of changing the wave number stepwise at wave number intervals of no more than 3.1×10−4 μm−1 and time intervals of no more than 530 μs.

摘要:
A packaging platform for optically coupling one or more optical waveguides of one or more optical components having the optical waveguide to one or more optical fibers is provided with a reference structure portion for the horizontal and vertical positioning of the optical component. The platform is further provided with one or more fiber positioning portions for inserting and holding the optical fiber and positioning the optical fiber at a position where the optical fiber is optically connected to the optical waveguide. The provided packaging platform and an optical module using the platform can simplify all alignment steps for optical coupling, electrical connection and sealing in the coupling of the optical component and the optical fiber.
