    Abstract: A simple, reliable, easy to use method for calculating bandwidth data of very narrow band laser beams based on bandwidth data obtained with a spectrometer in circumstances where the laser bandwidths are not large compared to the slit function of the spectrometer. The slit function of the spectrometer is determined (20). Spectral data of the laser beam is measured with the spectrometer to produce a measured laser beam spectrum which represents a convolution of the laser beam spectrum and the spectrometer slit function (76). This measured laser spectrum is then mathematically convolved with the slit function of the spectrometer to produce a doubly convolved spectrum. Bandwidth values representing true laser bandwidths are determined from measured laser spectrum and the doubly convolved spectrum. Preferably the true laser bandwidths are calculated by determining the difference between 'twice a measured laser bandwidth' and a corresponding 'doubly convolved bandwidth.' This method provides an excellent estimate of the true laser bandwidth because 'twice the measured laser bandwidth' represents two laser bandwidths and two spectrometer slit function bandwidths and the 'doubly convolved bandwidth' represents one laser bandwidth and two spectrometer slit function bandwidths. Thus, the difference is a representation of the true laser bandwidth. In a preferred embodiment the bandwidth parameters measured are the full width half-maximum bandwidth and the 95% integral bandwidth.

    Abstract: A monochromator (14) with a prism (20) is disposed so that light passes through it before passing on to an echelle polychromator (50). The linear dispersion of the monochromator (14) can be changed by changing the angular dispersion of the prism (20). This makes it possible to investigate, at high resolution, using an echelle grating (54), a particular spectral position and the region close to it. Care is taken that, depending on the mean wavelength being observed, not only is the detector array (66) of the polychromator (50) completely used, but also interfering orders are kept away from the polychromator (50). The linear dispersion of the monchromator can be changed for this purpose.

    Abstract: An optical device for the spectral analysis of a light source comprises

    a) a spectrograph assembly (1,2,31,32) including a dispersive element (32), and
    b) a classical collimator (3),
    the device being characterised in that the spectrograph assembly (1,2,31,32) supplies a complete intermediate spectrum at the object focus of the classical collimator and the classical collimator (3) reforms, at its image focus, an image of the dispersive element (32).
    The spectrograph assembly (1,2,31,32) is preferably a Czerny-Turner or other type of spectrograph comprising an entry slit (31), two juxtaposed concave mirrors (1,2) of the same focal length and a dispersive element (32) placed strictly in the common focal plane of the two mirrors (1,2). Most preferably, the classical collimator (3) is the first mirror of a second, similar spectrograph assembly (3,4,34).
    The device is most advantageous in that it is readily useable for both simultaneous and sequential spectroscopy.

    Abstract: A novel solid state array detector is useful in an optical spectrometer of the type that includes a crossed dispersion system receptive of radiation for producing a pair of two dimensional displays of spectral lines characteristic of at least one atomic element. One display is ultraviolet and the other is visible. A solid-state chip has on the front surface a two dimensional array of photosensitive pixels receptive of radiation of selected spectral lines and proximate background radiation. The pixels are arranged in a plurality of sub-arrays with each sub-array consisting of at least one of the pixels and are positioned at a projection location on the front surface of at least one of the chip among the sub-arrays are operatively connected to the pixels for producing readout signals correlating with intensities of the selected spectral lines.
