Abstract
A microscope comprising: a light sampler for collecting light from a measurement area of a sample; a multi-element detector having a plurality of photoelectric elements, for detecting the light collected by the light sampler, each photoelectric element corresponding to a minute measurement region in the measurement area with one-to-one correspondence; a Fourier transform spectrophotometer as a spectroscope; a data sampler for concurrently sampling intensity data sent from each photoelectric element of the multi-element detector at a timing determined by the Fourier transform spectrophotometer; and a data processor for obtaining time-resolved spectrum data for each minute measurement region according to temporally changed interference light data obtained by the data sampler.
