Far-infrared spectroscopy device
This far-infrared spectroscopy device is provided with: a variable wavelength far-infrared light source that generates first far-infrared light; an illuminating optical system that irradiates a sample with the first far-infrared light; a detecting nonlinear optical crystal that converts second far-infrared light into near-infrared light using pump light, said second far-infrared light having been transmitted from the sample; and a far-infrared image-forming optical system that forms an image of the sample in the detecting nonlinear optical crystal. The irradiation position of the first far-infrared light on the sample does not depend on the wavelength of the first far-infrared light.
1. A far-infrared spectroscopy device, comprising:
an illumination optical system; and
a stage on which a sample is mounted and that is movable in at least one direction, wherein
the illumination optical system is an anamorphic optical system, and
when a wavelength of a first far-infrared light from a variable wavelength far-infrared light source is changed, the stage is moved in accordance with a change in an irradiation position of far-infrared light that is likely to occur on the sample surface, and the first far-infrared light is emitted to the same position of the sample.
2. The far-infrared spectroscopy device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the illumination optical system is an imaging optical system that collimates far-infrared light from the variable wavelength far-infrared light source in a first cross section including an optical axis of the first far-infrared light and condenses the far-infrared light on a sample surface again and is a condensing optical system that condenses far-infrared light from the variable wavelength far-infrared light source on a sample surface in a second cross section orthogonal to the first cross section.
