FOURIER SPECTROPHOTOMETER

A Fourier spectrophotometer includes: a light source; an interferometer configured to obtain first and second interferograms whose intensity distributions are inverted from each other from the light emitted from light source; a multiplexing optical system configured to multiplex the first and second interferograms to irradiate the sample with a resultant interferogram; a demultiplexing optical system configured to demultiplex the first and second interferograms contained in the light passing through the sample; a light receiver configured to output a first light reception signal obtained by receiving the demultiplexed first interferogram and a second light reception signal obtained by receiving the demultiplexed second interferogram; and a signal processing device configured to perform processing for obtaining a noise-removed spectrum of the wavelength component in the analysis wavelength band by using the first and second light reception signals.
