Frequently Asked Questions

We need spectral range, configuration of use (monochromator or spectrograph), numeral aperture (F number) or size of grating, maximum overall dimension or maximum focal length, desired dispersion, desired resolution, entrance slit width and height or source geometry, minimum deviation, and at exit: if monochromator, exit slit width and height, and if flat field, length of detector, height and width of pixel.

Type IV aberration-corrected monochromator gratings provide better light collection efficiency and signal-to-noise ratio compared to Czerny-Turner monochromators, which are equipped with one plane grating, one collimating mirror, and one focusing mirror.

Specific aberration-corrected concave gratings are used to maximize performance for a given application. Using proprietary ray-tracing software, performance can be optimized for resolution, throughput, and signal-to-noise ratio.

A monochromator grating is a device that disperses, collimates, and refocuses light from an entrance slit onto an exit slit, allowing for wavelength scanning through a simple rotation of the grating.
