摘要:
The present invention provides an optical amplifying device which can be easily downsized, increased in output, and stabilized. An optical amplifying device 1A includes an optical amplifier 10A and an energy supplier 30. The optical amplifier 10A includes an optical amplifying medium 11 and a transparent medium 12. The energy supplier 30 supplies excitation energy (for example, excitation light) to the optical amplifying medium 11. The optical amplifying medium 11 is supplied with the excitation light to amplify light and output it. To-be-amplified light passes through the transparent medium 12 in the optical amplifying medium 11 a plurality of times. The transparent medium 12 can propagate the to-be-amplified light, for example, zigzag inside.

A gas concentration measuring module (2X) includes a gas cell (10X) configured to form an introduction space (11X) into which a sample gas (50X) is introduced, an infrared light source (21X) disposed at one end of the gas cell (10X), a reference light receiving element (31X) and a signal light receiving element (32X) disposed at the other end of the gas cell (10X) and configured to receive infrared light emitted from the infrared light source (21X), and an inert gas chamber (40X) disposed on an optical path between the infrared light source (21X) and the reference light receiving element (31X) in the introduction space (11X) and in which an inert gas, inert with respect to the infrared light emitted from the infrared light source (21X) is hermetically enclosed. A calculation circuit (3X) calculates a concentration of carbon dioxide in the sample gas (50X) based on a ratio between an energy value of light received by the reference light receiving element (31X) and an energy value of infrared light received by the signal light receiving element (32X) of the gas concentration measuring module (2X).

In a back-illuminated solid-state image pickup device including a semiconductor substrate 4 having a light incident surface at a back surface side and a charge transfer electrode 2 disposed at a light detection surface at an opposite side of the semiconductor substrate 4 with respect to the light incident surface, the light detection surface has an uneven surface. By the light detection surface having the uneven surface, etaloning is suppressed because lights reflected by the uneven surface have scattered phase differences with respect to a phase of incident light and resulting interfering lights offset each other. A high quality image can thus be acquired by the back-illuminated solid-state image pickup device.

A semiconductor energy detector as disclosed herein is arranged so that an aluminum wiring pattern is formed on the front side of transfer electrodes of a CCD vertical shift register, which pattern includes meander-shaped auxiliary wirings for performing auxiliary application/supplement and additional wirings for performing auxiliary supplement of transfer voltages in a way independent of the auxiliary wirings with respective ones of such wirings being connected to corresponding transfer electrodes to thereby avoid a problem as to lead resistivities at those transfer electrodes made of polycrystalline silicon, thus achieving the intended charge transfer at high speeds with high efficiency.

A substrate beam 1b is formed so as to divide a membrane for enabling detection of an energy ray upon back illumination, there by suppressing distortion of the membrane and preventing defocus upon detection due to the distortion, or the like. The distance is set sufficiently short from each region of the membrane to a substrate frame or to the substrate beam, thereby decreasing substrate resistance and enabling high-speed reading operation.

Prepared is an n− type semiconductor substrate 1 having a first principal surface 1a and a second principal surface 1b opposed to each other, and having a p+ type semiconductor region 3 formed on the first principal surface 1a side. At least a region opposed to the p+ type semiconductor region 3 in the second principal surface 1b of the n− type semiconductor substrate 1 is irradiated with a pulsed laser beam to form an irregular asperity 10. After formation of the irregular asperity 10, an accumulation layer 11 with an impurity concentration higher than that of the n− type semiconductor substrate 1 is formed on the second principal surface 1b side of the n− type semiconductor substrate 1. After formation of the accumulation layer 11, the n− type semiconductor substrate 1 is subjected to a thermal treatment.
