A photothermal conversion spectroscopic analysis method which is capable of performing analysis, measurement and detection with high sensitivity. A sample flows in a channel. A exciting light and a detecting light are exited. A gradient refractive index rod lens converges the exited light and forms a focal point at a position in or close to the channel. Intensity of the exited light and passing through the channel are detected. A depth of the channel is not less than two time as large as a difference in distance between focal positions of the exciting light and the detecting light.

A probe light with a wavelength of 780 nm CW-oscillated from a probe light source 16 is irradiated on measured substances in a minute channel 1, excitation lights with wavelengths of 658 nm and 532 nm, respectively, are modulated into plurality of flashing excitation lights with frequencies 1 kHz and 1.2 kHz and a duty factor of 50% and irradiated on the measured substances in the minute channel 1, the probe light refracted by a thermal lens formed by the irradiated flashing excitation lights is detected with respect to individual frequency components at the same time, and a signal of the detected probe light is guided from a PD 21 to a PC 24 as a signal processing apparatus via an IV amplifier 22. The PC 24 carries out FFT processing to measure the intensity of the signal with respect to individual frequency components.
