Czerny-Turner Monochromators and Double Monochromators

Monochromators with optical gratings for spectral dispersion are established tools in spectroscopy from the UV to the IR. And from the beginning, the classic Czerny-Turner design has proven successful.  Our monochromators MSH-150 and MSH-300 are robust, high-performance measuring systems featuring highest wavelength accuracy at all grating angles and a fast grating turret traversing speed. Our monochromators are free of backlash.

Features
  • Focal length: 150 mm or 300 mm, double monochromators to 600 mm
  • Fully automatic
  • USB 2.0 interface
  • Over 200 different gratings available
  • Control software and software development kit (LabView and others)

Further information

Check out our double monochromators for applications where the suppression of scattered light of a single monochromator is not enough. Depending on the application, they can be configured for either additive or subtractive dispersion. An optional oscillating mirror allows effortless switching from double to single operation.

Depending on the desired wavelength range, our monochromators can be fitted with various gratings. The usable range of applications is determined by the number of lines and the blaze wavelength. More than 200 different grating options guarantee a wide range of applications from the UV to the IR. Various entrance and exit slits, order sorting filters, condenser optics, fiber couplers and further accessories complement the system. Monochromators are used in spectral analysis or, when combined with one of our light sources, as tunable monochromatic light source. The integrated software helps choosing the correct grating and position. An optional programmable swing-away mirror (SAM) for entrance/exit selection allows spectral scans over wide ranges without the need for manual adjustment.
