A mirror unit 2 includes a mirror device 20 including a base 21 and a movable mirror 22, an optical function member 13, and a fixed mirror 16 that is disposed on a side opposite to the mirror device 20 with respect to the optical function member 13. The optical function member 13 is provided with a light transmitting portion 14 that constitutes a part of an optical path between the beam splitter unit 3 and the fixed mirror 16. The light transmitting portion 14 is a portion that corrects an optical path difference that occurs between an optical path between the beam splitter unit 3 and the movable mirror 22 and the optical path between the beam splitter unit 3 and the fixed mirror 16. The second surface 21b of the base 21 and the third surface 13a of the optical function member 13 are joined to each other.

A hyperspectral imager (HSI) includes a first thin film filter, the first thin film filter including a first quarter wave mirror, a second quarter wave mirror, and a low-refractive-index wedge between the first quarter wave mirror and the second quarter wave mirror. The low-refractive-index wedge has a height dimension such that a distance between the first quarter wave mirror and the second quarter wave mirror increases linearly along a length of the low-refractive-index wedge.

Methods and systems are provided for separating polarized UV light. In one example, a method may include passing polarized source light through a first prism, the polarized source light including desired light and undesired light, separating the desired light from the fundamental light, and passing the separated desired light through a second prism. The separated desired light which is passed through the second prism may then be further passed through a spatial filter.

An Attenuated total reflection measuring apparatus capable of Raman spectral measurement has an infrared optical instrument and a Raman module. The infrared optical instrument is disposed on an ATR prism side of a sample, and is provided to irradiate the ATR prism with an infrared light, and collect the infrared light from the ATR prism. The Raman module is disposed on a side opposite to the ATR prism side relative to the sample, and has a guide tube that outputs an excitation light from an excitation light source to the sample, and a lens portion disposed inside thereof. An end of the guide tube is in a position to push the sample to the ATR prism. The Raman module has a lens position adjustment mechanism that moves the lens portion along an optical axis, and a spectroscope that detects a Raman scattering light collected by the lens portion.

A system for testing a spectral response speed of a tunable filter is disclosed, which includes a collimating light source, a beam splitting element, a focusing lens, and an image recording device of light spot position arranged successively. The tunable filter is disposed between the collimating light source and the beam splitting element and configured to be continuously tuned within a certain wavelength range during testing. The beam splitting element is used to form light beams of different wavelength bands passing through the tunable filter into diffracted beams or refracted beams corresponding to different wavelength bands. The focusing lens is used to perform focusing. The image recording device of light spot position is used to record change information about positions where the diffracted beams or refracted beams corresponding to different wavelength bands are imaged.
