Compact fiber-optic fluorosensor using a continuous-wave violet diode laser and an integrated spectrometer
Author
Summary, in English
A compact fluorosensor with a fiber-optic measurement probe was developed, employing a continuous-wave violet diode laser as an exciting source and an integrated digital spectrometer for the monitoring of fluorescence signatures. The system has the dimensions 22x13x8 cm(3), and features 5 nm spectral resolution and an excellent detectivity. Results from measurements on vegetation and human premalignant skin lesions are reported, illustrating the potential of the instrument. (C) 2000 American Institute of Physics.
