Abstract
An optical information analyzer (10) includes a light emitting unit (30) that emits light (excitation light) (L0) to a sample (S), a transmission light receiving unit (50) that receives transmission light (L1), which is the excitation light passing through the sample (S), and detects the received transmission light as a transmission light signal (SG1), scattered light/fluorescence receiving units (60) and (70) that are provided at a plurality of positions, receive side scattered light/fluorescence components (L2) and (L3) from the sample (S), and detect the received side scattered light/fluorescence components as scattered light/fluorescence signals (SG2) and (SG3), and an analyzing unit (90) that measures the optical information of the sample (S) on the basis of the detected scattered light/fluorescence signals (SG2) and (SG3) and the detected transmission light signal (SG1) and analyzes the sample (S) on the basis of the measured optical information.
