Problems solved by technology

[0008] However, even if the Ag-C alloy film described in Patent Document 1 is used as a mirror, the performance of the interference filter is degraded
When an Ag-C alloy film is used for the mirror of an interference filter, although the high temperature resistance and processing resistance are improved compared with the case of using a pure silver film, a decrease in reflectance also occurs

[0040] (1. The overall structure of the color measurement device)

[0041] figure 1 It is a diagram showing a schematic configuration of a colorimetric device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0042] The colorimetric device 1 is an analysis device of the present invention, such as figure 1As shown, it includes a light source device 2 that emits light to an object A to be inspected, a colorimetric sensor 3 as an optical module of the present invention, and a control device 4 that controls the overall operation of the colorimetric device 1 . In addition, in this colorimetric device 1, the light emitted from the light source device 2 is reflected by the inspection object A, the reflected inspection object light is received by the colorimetric sensor 3, and the detection signal of the inspection object light is detected based on the detection signal output from the colorimetric sensor 3. Chromaticity is a device for analyzing and measuring the color of the o...

Abstract

An interference filter has a fixed mirror (56) and a movable mirror (57) that are formed of Ag-Sm-Cu alloy films that contain silver (Ag), samarium (Sm), and copper (Cu), or Ag-Bi-Nd alloy films that contains silver (Ag), bismuth (Bi), and neodymium (Nd).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an interference filter, an optical module including the interference filter, and an analysis device including the optical module. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, there is known an interference filter in which mirrors serving as reflective films are arranged to face each other on opposite surfaces of a pair of substrates. Such an interference filter includes a pair of substrates kept parallel to each other, and a pair of reflective mirrors (reflective films) formed on the pair of substrates to face each other with a gap at a certain interval. [0003] In such an interference filter, light is reflected between a pair of mirrors, and only light of a specific wavelength is transmitted, and light of other wavelengths cancels each other by interference, so that only light of a specific wavelength among incident light is transmitted. [0004] A dielectric film or a metal film is used in the mirror. The function...
