<p>In a Raman spectrometer having a charge-coupled device (CCD) detector (24), an incoming beam (36) containing a spectrum of Raman scattered light is dispersed by a diffraction grating (44). Different parts of the spectrum are split into separate optical paths (48A-C) by edge filters (38A, 38B) and a mirror (46). These components are tilted at different vertical angles, so that after the beams (48A-C) have been dispersed by the diffraction grating (44), they form partial spectra (50A-C), one above the other on the CCD (24). This enables several consecutive parts of a widely dispersed spectrum to be viewed simultaneously on the CCD (24) at high resolution.</p> |
