A prism can break white light up into the visible light spectrum. (Image credit: NASA) A spectroscope or spectrometer splits light into the wavelengths that make it up.

A multinational research team, including engineers from the University of Cambridge and Zhejiang University, has developed a ...

This sets a limit on the spectral coverage of the spectrometer. Typically, to improve the overall signal to noise ratio (SNR) of the spectrometer, the blaze wavelength of the diffraction grating is ...

A spectrometer is a device for measuring wavelengths of light over a wide range of the electromagnetic spectrum. It is widely used for spectroscopic analysis of sample materials. The incident light ...

The TT-OES9000 Optical Emission Spectrometer by Torontech combines smart design with advanced technology to deliver precision without complication. Its layout supports both high-volume labs and ...

Existing high-resolution spectrometers were large and complex, making them difficult for widespread daily use. However, thanks to the ultra-compact, high-resolution spectrometer developed by KAIST ...

Those wavelengths will show up on a spectrometer as bands of color. Spectrometers don’t just analyze things which emit light. They also analyze things that absorb it.

A new optical spectrometer is super-compact thanks to a metalens that focuses light at multiple wavelengths. The new device can detect light spectra with a resolution of 1 nm, and unlike its bulkier ...

Order out of disorder – the new spectrometer in action. (Courtesy: Hui Cao/Yale University) The disordered scattering of light in a special silicon crystal has been used to make a tiny “spectrometer ...

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, tho… ...
