DEVICE FOR CORRECTING LIGHT ABSORPTION SPECTRUM, METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE DEVICE, AND METHOD OF CORRECTING LIGHT ABSORPTION SPECTRUM
First Claim
1. A light absorption spectrum correction device comprising:
- a light source configured to emit light;
an attenuated total reflectance (ATR) crystal layer configured to contact a subject and provide an optical passage along which the light emitted by the light source travels to the subject;
a pressure sensor configured to detect a contact pressure applied to the ATR crystal layer by the subject;
a spectrum detector and analyzer configured to detect light emitted from the ATR crystal layer, form a light absorption spectrum based on the detected light, and determine an intensity of the light emitted from the ATR crystal layer; and
a spectrum correction device configured to correct the light absorption spectrum based on the contact pressure.
