Developments of Infrared Source, Spectrum Analysis for Human Skin and Its Application to Rehabilitation. .

[[abstract]]在1970 年代以後，由於電腦軟硬體科技的突飛猛進加上以干涉儀取代光柵色散系統及可調頻雷 射光源等的配合，大大提高了紅外光譜檢測的雜訊比、數據取得速率、解析度、靈敏度及樣品前處理 的方便性等因素；目前在有機物、無機物及高分子等之組成結構分析上以及化學、生物、醫學領域的 研究，紅外光譜檢測有相當的重要性。 本研究計畫討論的紅外光之光譜範圍自750-2500nm。本研究計劃的主要目標是研究紅外光物理治 療，並透過光學設計，增強其效果。物理治療是以非侵入性的治療方式，恢復身體各個器官及組織全 部或部分的功能；近幾年在物理復建方面使用非常廣泛。本實驗的前瞻創新重點乃是藉由固態物理近 紅外光譜理論與徵求百名復健人員進行物理治療之臨床實驗，及結合共同主持人於成功大學之醫學院 儀器協助下，尋找出在2500nm 以下對物理治療最有療效之量化波段；在不增加紅外燈泡成本之下改 變其光學及鍍膜設計，以期待能達到最好的療效，縮短病人治療的時間。本計劃的重點乃是研發新型 有效率的紅外燈泡，無論用傳統鎢絲燈泡 或LED 或紅外雷射 將其最佳化後其功率集中於物理治療 有明顯效果的波段以取代現有的全光譜紅外燈泡，大幅縮短治療時間以及增強效果。本計劃的未來開 創性乃是研究未來可能取代鎢絲燈泡的光源，例如：紅光LED 及紅外雷射。並且藉由光學設計及光 學鍍膜的方法增強其效率。可望帶來高效率的紅外物理治療的新世代[[abstract]]This project is proposed to develop a new LED infrared system for general physical therapy because near infrared spectrum might have greater impact on physical therapy if specific spectrum has been found. The range of near infrared spectrum, which works for physical therapy, might be found by many methods like mathematical calculation and experiments. With regard to mathematical calculation, the basic theory is from advanced Solid State Physics. The lattice and its responding infrared absorption and radiation will be comprehensively discussed then calculated. Some experiments by Rehabilitation will be done following determination of the effective range of near infrared spectrum for physical therapy. After the determination of effective range of near infrared spectrum, a newly developed thin film coating will be designed and tested in order to strengthen the power of effective near infrared spectrum, which might significantly minimize the time for physical therapy. Finally, the potential light source such as LED and Laser will be studied for further use.[[note]]NSC100-2622-E327-017-CC
