The diffraction grating of a spectrometer partially determines the optical resolution that can be achieved by the spectrometer and also determines the wavelength range. Selecting the correct grating ...

The need for compact, high-performance imaging spectrometers that span an application space from satellite imagery to food safety has never been higher. In this data-driven world, consumers want to ...

As stated in the article titled ‘An Introduction to a Spectrometer: The Slit’, a spectrometer is an imaging system that maps a plurality of monochromatic images of the entrance slit onto the detector ...

McPherson's SXR spectrometer, Model 251MX, is now available with improved efficiency over a wider range. A new diffraction grating is available! The new Gold coated diffraction grating is ideal for ...

Spectroscopy seems simple: split a beam of light into its constituent wavelengths with a prism or diffraction grating, and measure the intensity of each wavelength. The devil is in the details, though ...

This page contains hints, solutions, and advanced challenges for our diffraction grating challenge. If you would like a grating (or a set for your class if you are a teacher), please contact us at ...

The ESIS-II mission aims to capture high-speed “snapshot” images of the Sun’s transition region and corona. To achieve this, ...

Spectrometer optics involves measuring light intensity by means of a specialized analytical tool called a spectrometer which separates light by wavelength. Spectrometers are used for a variety of ...

Hamamatsu Photonics has introduced a UV model of its ‘micro’ spectrometer series. C16767MA is sensitive across 190 to 440nm with a typical resolution of 5.5nm (FWHM, so ±2.25nm to 50%). Update: scroll ...

The spectrum of laser technologies available to hackers has gradually widened from basic gas lasers through CO2 tubes, diode lasers, and now fiber lasers. One of the newer entries is the MOPA laser, ...
