Abstract:
Provided is a fluorescence reading device capable of narrowing a distance between a lens unit and an observation object to a distance according to a focal length of a refractive index distribution type lens and focusing fluorescence emitted from the observation object on detecting unit without blurring. Optical fiber sub-bundles equivalent to a light guide unit are buried in lens holding parts of a lens unit. Emission ends of the optical fiber sub-bundles are exposed to upper surfaces of the lens holding parts that face the observation object holding unit. The optical fiber sub-bundles guide the excitation light emitted from the light source and radiate the guided excitation light toward the surface of an observation object that faces the lens unit.

Claim (Index 15):
The fluorescence reading device according to  claim 2 ,\n wherein the light guide unit is a light guide plate having a parallel plate shape that is disposed between the observation object holding unit and the lens unit, wherein the light guide plate has a transmission plate that transmits the excitation light and the fluorescence, a first reflective film that is formed on a surface of the transmission plate that faces the observation object holding unit and reflects the excitation light, a second reflective film that is formed on a surface of the transmission plate that faces the lens unit and reflects the excitation light, and a plurality of first openings that are portions in which the first reflective film is missing, in the surface of the transmission plate that faces the observation object holding unit, and wherein the excitation light incident from a side surface of the transmission plate is propagated through an inside of the transmission plate while being reflected by the first reflective film and the second reflective film, and a portion of the excitation light propagated through the inside of the transmission plate is emitted toward the observation object holding unit through the first openings.
