Abstract:
Raman spectroscopic analyzer including: a beam-casting unit 3 for receiving a light beam generated by a light source and for converging the light beam on a predetermined position in a perpendicular direction to the longitudinal direction of a measurement chamber through which a liquid sample is passed; and a light-receiving unit placed at a distance in the longitudinal direction from the predetermined position, for receiving scattered light emitted from the fluid sample. Among the scattered light which enters the light-receiving unit, the portion which enters this unit after being reflected by the inner wall surface opposite to this unit is eliminated, so that the amount of noise in the Raman spectroscopic measurement is considerably reduced.

To obtain a resin type identification method and a resin type identification apparatus with which an optimum infrared reflection spectrum for identifying a resin piece can be selected and accurate identification processing can be performed successively on individual resin pieces even when the resin pieces are identified using a single optical detector, at least one identifying signal power is selected by executing signal processing on the basis of signal powers corresponding to infrared reflection intensities obtained by emitting infrared light onto the resin piece, and the resin type of the resin piece is identified on the basis of an infrared reflection spectrum corresponding to the selected identifying signal power.
Abstract:
A Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer includes a main interfersometer, a control interferometer, an infrared detector, a control light detector, and a beam splitter block. The beam splitter block is disposed between a beam splitter and the control light detector. The control light detector has an optical axis inclined with respect to an optical axis of a control interference light beam.

A plastic identification device includes a sample holding unit for holding, as a sample, a plastic to be identified, an infrared spectrophotometer including a light source for generating infrared light, an incident optical system for emitting the infrared light from the light source on the sample held by the sample holding unit, a light detector, and a receiver optical system for guiding the infrared light from the sample to the light detector, and a calculation device for identifying a type of the plastic which is the sample based on a detection result of the light detector. A focal length of the incident optical system is shorter than a focal length of the receiver optical system.
Abstract:
Provided is a gas absorption spectroscopic system and gas absorption spectroscopic method capable of accurately measuring the concentration or other properties of gas even in high-speed measurements. Laser light with a varying wavelength is cast into target gas. A spectrum profile representing a change in the intensity of the laser light transmitted through the target gas with respect to wavelength is determined. For this spectrum profile, polynomial approximation is performed at each wavelength point within a predetermined wavelength width, using an approximate polynomial. Based on the coefficients of the terms in the approximate polynomial at each point, an nth order derivative curve, where n is an integer of zero or larger, of the spectrum profile is created. A physical quantity of the target gas is determined based on the thus created nth order derivative curve.
