Patent attributes
A fluorescence correlation spectroscopy analyzer 1 is equipped with an excitation light illuminating optical system 21, a fluorescence imaging optical system 22, a CCD camera 15, and a data analyzer 16. The excitation light illuminating optical system 21 illuminates excitation light onto a predetermined region of a measured sample S. The fluorescence imaging optical system 22 images the fluorescence generated at the measured sample S onto the photodetection surface of the CCD camera 15. The CCD camera 15 performs photoelectric conversion of the fluorescence made incident onto the photodetection surface in accordance with the respective pixels and outputs the charges generated by the photoelectric conversion as detection signals from an output terminal. The data analyzer 16 inputs the detection signals based on the charges generated at the pixels, and computes autocorrelation functions of the input detection signals according to each pixel.
