摘要:
A light source device 1 includes a laser light source 10 and an optical phase modulator 15 or the like. The optical phase modulator 15 inputs coherent light output from the laser light source 10 and transmitted through a beam splitter 14, phase-modulates the light according to the position on a beam cross section of the light, and outputs the phase-modulated light to the beam splitter 14. When (p+1) areas sectioned by p circumferences centered on a predetermined position are set on a beam cross section of light input to the optical phase modulator 15, the more outside each of the (p+1) areas is, the wider the radial width of the area, the amount of phase modulation is constant in each of the (p+1) areas, and the amounts of phase modulation differ by π between two adjacent areas out of the (p+1) areas.

There is provided a solid-state imaging device in which images can be read at high speed. Since an n-th processing circuit (e.g. PU1) can be connected to n-th pixel columns (N1) in respective imaging blocks B1, B2, and B3 via switches Q (1), Q (4), and Q (7), signals from the adjacent pixel columns (N2) are to be processed separately by another processing circuit (PU2) even when a partial readout area R may be small. In addition, an image data arithmetic section 10 specifies the partial readout area R restrictively, which allows for higher speed imaging.

An eye movement measurement apparatus 1 measures movement of a cornea 101 by imaging a corneal reflection light image L2 generated as a result of irradiating the cornea 101 with infrared light L1. The eye movement measurement apparatus 1 includes: an imaging section 5 having a sensor section 51 including a plurality of pixels arrayed two-dimensionally, for generating imaging data including the corneal reflection light image L2 made incident on the sensor section 51; a bright spot position operation section 6 that calculates a position of the corneal reflection light image L2 in the imaging data; and a tremor signal operation section 7 that generates a third data string indicating a tremor component included in movement of the cornea 101 by calculating a difference between a first data string concerning temporal changes in position of the corneal reflection light image L2 and a second data string obtained by smoothing the first data string. Accordingly, an eye movement measurement apparatus capable of accurately detecting a tremor component is realized.

A fly-eye lens 30 formed by arranging a plurality of condensing lenses 32 in a matrix on a plane, a CMOS sensor 10 having a light receiving surface arranged in parallel to the fly-eye lens 30 at a distance corresponding to the focal length of the condensing lenses 32, and a phase calculation device 20 are provided. A center position calculating part 243 calculates the center positions of bright spots (focal points) of focal point images on the light receiving surface by comparison with luminances of adjacent pixels. A centroid data processing part 245 calculates the 0-order moment (total of bright spot luminances in the centroid operating region), first-order moment in the x direction, and first-order moment in the y direction of the luminance in a centroid operating region centered on the bright spot center position. A centroid position calculating part 261 calculates the centroid position of each bright spot based on these centroid data.

In a spatial light modulation device using a reflection type spatial light modulator, read light is a P-polarized light that falls incident on the light reflection layer 17 at a slant. Liquid crystal in the light modulation layer 17 is oriented so as to incline, in association with the application of voltage by the driving circuit 2, within a plane that is parallel to a normal plane which includes the optical axes of both of the incident, read light and the output, modulated light.

In a spatial light modulator of the present invention, a photoconductive layer formed of photoconductive material receives write light having a spatial distribution in its intensity and changes resistivity of the photoconductive material dependently on the spatial distribution in the intensity of the received write light. A liquid crystal layer formed of liquid crystal molecules of nematic phase receives read light and presents birefringence with respect to the received read light. An electric voltage is applied through the photoconductive layer and the liquid crystal layer to thereby produce an electric field in the liquid crystal layer. The photoconductive layer changes the electric field produced in the liquid crystal layer in accordance with the resistivity of the photoconductive material so as to electrically control the birefringence of the liquid crystal molecules. The liquid crystal layer modulates the received read light in accordance with the birefringence which is electrically controlled in accordance with the spatial distribution in the intensity of the write light received by the photoconductive layer.
