  • Optical mechanism for precisely controlling the angle of an incident light beam within a large incident angle range
    Patent number: 6288841
    Abstract: An optical path overlapping type incident angle changeable optical mechanism according to the invention allows an incident light beam to be incident onto a measured range of a sample within a large incident angle range. The optical mechanism includes a reflecting prism reflecting the incident light beam to generate a reflected light beam having an angle of 90° with respect to the incident light beam; a concave parabolic cylindric mirror guiding the reflected light beam coming from the reflecting prism to a measured range of a detect-waiting sample to thereby be further reflected to generate a detect-waiting light beam; a concave cylindric mirror used to make the detect-waiting light beam incident onto/reflected by the reflecting prism so as to overlap with the incident light beam; and a light beam splitting means used to separate the detect-waiting light beam from the incident light beam.
