HT Spectrometer - Arcoptix - #1

A monolithic bloc design makes the HT insensitive to external conditions and robust.

The heart of the HT is made of materials that are transparent over a large spectral range and the sensitivity is only limited by the detector.

throughput are combined in Fourier transform spectroscopy because resolution is limited by the maximum optical path difference and not by the entrance slit.

The entrance aperture is

several millimeters large.

integration is possible because there is no need for injection or fiber optics.

The ARCspectro

HT

is a stationary Fourier transform

spectrometer that is based on polarization optics. It provides an extremely high sensitivity and is ideal for measurements of low light or diffusing sources. Its unique design permits to collect light over a large surface of several millimeters. It can gather between 50 and 100x more light than a grating spectrometers (with similar resolution)

The optical setup is extremely simple because the user can directly illuminate the 4 mm entrance window with the light to be spectrally analyzed without need of cumbersome and expensive focusing optics. It cn also be used in combination with large lightguides.

Typical characteristics of the HT series are

* Ultra-high-throughput

* Large spectral range: 400nm-1050nm

* High resolution

* No moving parts, Robust monolithic design

* Raman spectroscopy

* Fluorescence spectroscopy

* Reflectance measurement

* Colorimetry
