An improved illuminator for generating broadband light, and for delivering the light to a sample with an improved delivery efficiency, for higher optical density and / or reduced thermal transfer, than achieved with conventional halogen bulb sources. The illuminator enables spectroscopic analysis in thermally-sensitive or spatially-constrained environments. A phosphor-coated broadband white LED and integrated collimating optics produces a continuous, collimated broadband light beam from 400 nm to 700 nm, which is then transmitted through space to a sample region, such as a living tissue in vivo. This results in a high net efficient delivery of light to the tissue sample. An efficient conversion of power to light, and the high delivery efficiency, keeps both the illuminator and sample cool during operation, allowing the illuminator to be integrated into the tip of a medical probe or into monitoring systems.

A multi-channel, reconfigurable fiber-coupled Raman instrument uses fiber optic switches for laser and calibration light routing to facilitate automated calibration, diagnosis and operational safety. The system allows wavelength axis calibration on all channels; laser wavelength calibration (including multiple and / or backup laser options); fiber coupling optimization; fault detection / diagnosis; and CCD camera binning setup. In the preferred embodiment, dedicated calibration channels surround data channels on a 2-dimensional CCD dispersed slit image implemented using a unique cabling architecture. This “over / under” calibration interpolation approach facilitates quasi-simultaneous or sequential calibration / data acquisitions. CCD binning between sequential calibration and data acquisitions enables higher density multi-channel operation with tilted images based upon a multiplexed grating configuration. A diamond sample is used as a Raman shift reference for laser calibration, preferably in the form of a small disc sampled with an edge-illuminating probe using two unfiltered fibers. Detection of beam transmitted through the diamond reference is also used to optimize laser coupling efficiency with motion servos. An “intrinsically safe” laser interlock circuit also serves as current source for probe head “laser on” diode indicator. The integrity of key components is monitored through strategically placed photodiodes positioned, for example, at fiber bends to detect light leakage from bent fiber as verification of commanded laser path through fiber switches and at neon and halogen lamp locations to verify lamp operation. The optical switches used for calibration may also be configured for use as a laser shutter.

A semiconductor wafer to be treated is placed in a horizontal position on a holding plate held by a susceptor. Six bumps are mounted upright on the upper surface of the holding plate. The semiconductor wafer is supported by the six bumps in point contacting relationship, and is held at a distance ranging from 0.5 mm to 3 mm from the upper surface of the holding plate. Light is directed from halogen lamps onto the semiconductor wafer held by the holding plate to preheat the substrate until the temperature of the semiconductor wafer is increased up to a predetermined temperature. Thereafter, flash light is directed from flash lamps onto the semiconductor wafer. A thin gas layer lying between the back surface of the semiconductor wafer and the upper surface of the holding plate acts as a resistance to suppress the motion of the semiconductor wafer, thereby preventing a crack in the semiconductor wafer.

The temperature of a semiconductor wafer is raised by light irradiation heating performed by halogen lamps. An infrared ray emitted from the semiconductor wafer whose temperature has been raised transmits through an infrared-transparent window made of silicon, and then is detected by an infrared camera. The infrared camera two-dimensionally detects the temperature of an entire surface of the semiconductor wafer. Based on a result of the detection obtained by the infrared camera, a temperature drop region having a relatively low temperature among the region of the semiconductor wafer is irradiated with laser light emitted from a laser light emission part. Accordingly, without rotating the semiconductor wafer, a temperature distribution can be made uniform with a high accuracy throughout the entire surface of the semiconductor wafer.

A low voltage LED Lamp produces variable illumination in response to industry standard lighting dimmers, through the use of an input voltage monitoring circuit which variably controls the current output of an integral driver in response to sensed changes in the input voltage. Input circuitry is employed to provide “ghost” loading in the case of high frequency voltage sources such as that provided by certain electronic ballasts requiring minimum loads to operate. Additionally, the capacitive nature of prior art LED driving circuits is altered, increasing power factor and further helping electronic ballasts run properly. A firmware algorithm adapts to the output voltage capability of the driving transformer, dynamically adjusting the illumination to achieve the best dimming curve suited to each transformer. The circuit employed drives high power LEDs, and the lamp is preferably adapted to fit common MR16 size fixtures. Illumination output equivalent to similar size halogen bulbs is achieved.
