| 20080218734 | Attenuated total reflection probe and spectrometer therewith - An attenuated total reflection probe has a prism and a supporter. The prism is made of an optical material which transmits light in far ultraviolet region, and has a contact plane to be in contact with a sample, and an incoming plane and an outgoing plane both not to be in contact with the sample. The supporter has an opening and is connected hermetically with the prism around the opening and eventually exposes the contact plane facing the opening. The contact plane, the incoming plane and the outgoing plane of the prism are formed such that light transmitting the incoming plane enters the contact plane at an incident angle larger than critical angle and that the light totally reflected by the contact plane goes out through the outgoing plane. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20090073436 | ATTENUATED TOTAL REFLECTION OPTICAL PROBE AND APPARATUS THEREWITH FOR SPECTROSCOPIC MEASUREMENT OF AQUEOUS SOLUTION - An optical probe consists of a first component made of a first optical material having a light transmission property in the far ultraviolet region, and a second component made of a second optical material arranged in contact with the surface of the first component. For example, the second optical material has a higher refractive index in the far ultraviolet region than the first optical material. The second component is provided, on a side in contact with a sample, with a surface totally reflecting light having incident angle equal to or larger than the critical angle. Alternatively, an optical probe has an optical material having a light transmission property in the far ultraviolet region, having a surface totally reflecting a ray of light of incident angle equal to or larger than the critical angle, at a side in contact with a sample, and the refractive index is higher near the surface than at the other parts in the far ultraviolet region. Consequently, a spectroscopic measurement becomes possible on very small solute components dissolved into water or the like in the far ultraviolet region. | 03-19-2009 |

| 20090033769 | IMAGE SHOOTING APPARATUS - According to one embodiment an image shooting apparatus comprises shooting mechanism for shooting image information, generating means for generating a moving image stream data file and a moving image information data file formed of information associated with the moving image stream data file as separate files for one title in the image information shot by the shooting means, and first recording means for recording the moving image stream data file and the moving image information data file generated by the generating means as separate files. | 02-05-2009 |
| 20090080874 | PHOTOGRAPHIC APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME, PROGRAM FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND RECORDING MEDIUM STORING THE PROGRAM - According to one embodiment, there is provided photographic apparatus which has image acquisition unit, image processing unit configured to process the image data acquired by image acquisition unit, display unit configured to display the image represented by the imaged data processed by image processing unit, attitude detection unit configured to detect the attitude of photographic apparatus and outputs attitude information, and control unit configured to controls image acquisition unit, image processing unit and display unit. The control unit outputs, to display unit, an inclination reference image that enables a user to visually perceive how much an image photographed when photographic apparatus actually inclines is inclined to an image photographed when photographic apparatus does not incline at all. The control unit controls the density of the inclination reference image, increasing the density when the inclination of photographic apparatus is large, and decreasing the density when the inclination is small. | 03-26-2009 |
