Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/057148
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A probe (3) provided with: an illumination fiber (34); a light-collection fiber (35); a jacket member (37) that covers the side surfaces of the fibers; a cap (40) that covers the tip of the probe; a white plate (42) that is provided on the surface of the cap (40) facing the tips of the fibers and is used in correction measurements involving light emitted from the fiber tip; and an adhesive (43) that bonds the cap (40) to the tip of the probe (3) and comprises an adhesive member in which the adhesive strength relative to the jacket member (37) decreases when heat is applied. In the part of the white plate (42) on which light is irradiated, said light generates heat which is conducted from the white plate (42) to the adhesive (43), causing the adhesive (43) to melt.
