A spectrometer (10) includes a two-dimensional array of modulatable micro-mirrors (18), a detector (20), and an analyzer (22). The array of micro-mirrors is positioned for receiving individual radiation components forming a part of an input radiation source. The micro-mirrors are modulated at different modulation rates in order to reflect individual radiation components therefrom at known and different modulation rates. The micro-mirror array combines a number of the reflected individual radiation components and reflects the combined components to the detector. The detector is oriented to receive the combined radiation components reflected from the array and is operable to create an output signal representative thereof. The analyzer is operably coupled with the detector to receive the output signal and to analyze at least some of the individual radiation components making up the combined reflection. By using a micro-mirror that receives individual radiation components and then modulates the radiation components at different rates, all of the radiation components can be focused onto a single detector to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio of the detector. A variable band pass filter spectrometer, variable band reject filter spectrometer, variable multiple band pass filter spectrometer, and a variable multiple band reject filter spectrometer utilizing the same invention are also disclosed. |
