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 ...

Lighting and display manufacturers must ensure their products are consistent in their light output, making them reliant on effective quality control methods. Their products must be validated, and ...

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 ...

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 ...

Compact imaging spectrometer combines a catadioptric lens and a special flat immersion reflection grating. (Courtesy: Ronald B. Lockwood, MIT Lincoln Laboratory) A new, slimline imaging spectrometer ...

When we taught a class of first year chem/biochem majors about spectroscopy, we introduced them to it with a task. It was to dig through bins full of the things shown below (many of them 3D-printed ...

Researchers at MIT Lincoln Laboratory have developed a new imaging spectrometer, which they say is “much lighter and smaller than state-of-the-art instruments while maintaining the same high level of ...
