A dispersive, diffraction grating, NIR spectrometer that automatically calibrates the wavelength scale of the instrument without the need for external wavelength calibration materials is shown. The device shows: 1) a low power He-Ne laser at right angles to the source beam of the spectrometer; 2) a folding mirror to redirect the collimated laser beam so that it is parallel to the source beam; 3) the tendency of diffraction gratings to produce overlapping spectra of higher orders; 4) a "polka dot" beam splitter to redirect the majority of the laser beam toward the reference detector; 5) PbS detectors and 6) a software routine written in Lab VIEW that automatically corrects the wavelength scale of the instrument from the positions of the 632.8 nm laser line in the spectrum. |
