Abstract
Provided is a position detection method and a position detection device for detecting a position of a sensor chip and obtaining relative positional information between a well member and a prism as for a well chip type sensor chip in which the well member is provided on a prism. By applying measurement light to the sensor chip while changing a distance between the sensor chip and a measurement light irradiation unit and detecting reflected light traveling in a predetermined direction out of the reflected light generated when the measurement light is reflected by the sensor chip, at least any one of the position of the sensor chip and the relative position between a dielectric member and a sample solution holding member is detected on the basis of a change in intensity of the detected reflected light.
