A light source unit and a spectrum analyzer are provided in which the influence of interference can be reduced under conditions where light is separated into spectral components. A spectrum analyzer 1 is equipped with a light source unit 2 for irradiating light onto sample A, a detector unit 3 for detecting the light reflected, scattered, or transmitted from the sample A, and a sample stage 4 on which a sample A is placed. A wide band light source 20 generates wide band light P1 such as supercontinuum light (SC light). Also, the light source unit 2 has an interference suppressing means for suppressing the interference of each wavelength component of the wide band light P1.

The present invention relates to an analyzing apparatus and the like having a structure for enabling spectrometry and the like up to a longer frequency region while being excellent in practicality. The analyzing apparatus comprises a light source section and a light-detecting section. The light source section includes a seed light source emitting laser light, and a solid highly nonlinear optical fiber generating SC light in response to the input of the laser light, and thereby emitting the SC light as irradiation light to an object. The light-detecting section detects light to be detected from the object irradiated with the irradiation light. Here, the seed light source in the light source section emits pulsed light having a center wavelength within the range of 1.3 μm to 1.8 μm.
