Abstract
An optical device includes: a second light source configured to emit laser light having a wavelength different from that of measurement light emitted from a first light source; a light splitter; a first mirror configured to add a first modulation signal to the measurement light and add a displacement signal to the laser light; a second mirror configured to reflect a second beam of the measurement light; a first color separator configured to separate the second beam of the measurement light from a second laser light beam based on a difference in wavelength; an optical modulator driven based on a drive signal and configured to add a second modulation signal to the second laser light beam after the separation; a first photodetector configured to receive the measurement light including a sample-derived signal and the first modulation signal; and a second photodetector configured to receive the laser light including the displacement signal and the second modulation signal.
