摘要:
An invisible symbol reading apparatus includes a heating unit for heating an invisible symbol formed on a sample and containing a material which emits infrared light when heated, a detecting unit for detecting infrared light emitted from the invisible symbol, and an arithmetic operation unit for binarizing a detection signal from the detecting unit. The arithmetic operation unit calculates a differential coefficient of the detection signal, that corresponds to a position on the sample. On the basis of upper and lower threshold values set for the differential coefficient, the arithmetic operation unit determines a maximum value of the differential coefficient in a region exceeding the upper threshold value and a minimum value of the differential coefficient in a region smaller than the lower threshold value. The arithmetic operation unit binarizes the detection signal by using the maximum or minimum value as a leading or trailing edge of a binary function.

A liquid crystal device evaluation method including the steps of irradiating infrared a liquid crystal device with light while applying an electric field to the liquid crystal device, and obtaining a field response curve corresponding to a change in infrared light intensity with time by measuring time-profile of infrared light intensity having passed through the liquid crystal layer, wherein an impurity mixed in the liquid crystal device is detected on the basis of the slope of the field response curve which is obtained, when pulsed electric fields having different polarities are applied to the liquid crystal device, within a time corresponding to the pulse width of each pulsed electric field. An apparatus for realizing the evaluation method is also disclosed.
