A thickness detector includes a rotator having different shape marks, disposed at different positions in a rotation direction; an opposing member disposed opposite the rotator; a detector to detect and output a displacement amount of the rotator or the opposing member in a sheet thickness direction; and a controller. The controller is configured to acquire first output values for one rotation from the detector, in a state without sheet; determine, based on a value output from the detector, whether one of the plurality of marks is detected in a state with the sheet held; acquire a predetermined number of second output values after one of the marks is detected; extract, from the first output values, values corresponding to the second output values, based on the value corresponding to the detected mark; and calculate a sheet thickness based on the second output values and the extracted first output values.

A temperature sensitive body 102 used as a target of an optical temperature measurement, includes an inclusion 202 having an optical property related to an irradiated light varies with a change in temperature, and a light-transmissive outer shell member 200 enclosing the inclusion 202. When a temperature is measured, the inclusion 202 emits light when a light is radiated upon the inclusion 202. Since an optical property related to the irradiated light varies in accordance with a change in temperature, the temperature of the inclusion 202 can be detected by analyzing the outgoing light. A temperature of a location in which the temperature sensitive body is provided can be detected using the temperature of the inclusion 202.

The objective of the present invention is to reduce the dispersion of a powdered substance, which is the target substance, during the analysis period in an analyzing device that analyzes the target substance by analyzing the light originated from the substance which is in the plasma state. The present invention relates to an analyzing device including a plasma generation means which generates plasma in the space and maintains plasma using the energy of EM radiation emitted from a radiation antenna; and an optical analysis means which analyzes a target substance by analyzing the plasma light generated from target substance of plasma state in the plasma area during the plasma maintenance period where the plasma is maintained by the plasma generation means using the energy of EM radiation. The plasma generation means emits the EM radiation from the radiation antenna in continuous waves during the plasma maintenance period.
