Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a simple ultraviolet-ray detector, wherein ultraviolet rays are converted into visible light, then it is further converted into visible light having a longer wavelength by a fluorescent material. CONSTITUTION:Ultraviolet rays 1 are converted into visible light by an optical fiber 3 including Ge after passing a filter 2. Said visible light is converted into light having orange color or red color by a fluorescent material 4 at the end of the optical fiber 3. The light converted by the fluorescent material 4 can be observed by the naked eye through an optical fiber 6, which is connected to the optical fiber 3 by a connecting part 7.

Conventional techniques for detecting ultraviolet rays include a method using an element that converts ultraviolet rays into electrical energy, a method using a chemical reaction caused by external rays, and a method using a substance that emits light when exposed to ultraviolet rays. A signal transduction system is required to detect ultraviolet light at a distance. Furthermore, when using chemical reactions caused by ultraviolet rays, there is also a change over time in which the chemical substances gradually break down due to the strong energy of the ultraviolet rays. Therefore, it has been desired to develop an ultraviolet detection method that integrates an ultraviolet detection system and a signal transmission system and is highly durable.

[Example] The present invention will be described below based on the illustrated example. FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the invention. In this embodiment, the ultraviolet ray 1 is passed through a filter 2, the ultraviolet 1 that has passed is incident on a first optical fiber 3 containing Ge, and the first optical fiber 3 converts the ultraviolet ray 1 into a first visible light. After converting this first visible light into a second visible light 5 having a longer wavelength using a fluorescent substance 4, this second visible light 5 is incident and propagated into a second optical fiber 6 to emit ultraviolet light. 1i11 is now detected. In addition, in the same figure, 7 is a connection part. By doing this, the ultraviolet rays 1 are filtered through the filter 2.

This filter 2 is for excluding visible light. (Ultraviolet and visible light is generated in the first optical fiber 3 including 3e. First light)? Since the transmission zero loss of the optical fiber 3 is larger for the ultraviolet ray 1 than for the first visible light, as the first optical fiber 3 becomes longer, the incident ultraviolet ray 1 is attenuated and the first visible light is propagated. This first visible light reaches the end of the first optical fiber 3, but since the wavelength of 0°42 μm has poor sensitivity to the naked eye, it is placed at the end of the first optical fiber 3 to make it easier to see. The attached fluorescent material 4 converts the orange-white or red visible light into second visible light 5 having a longer wavelength than the first visible light.
