Abstract: A dispersive filter includes two dispersion systems with an intermediate slit between them. The two dispersion systems have similar but mirror image dispersion characteristics at the plane of the intermediate slit and are configured so that the entrance port of the dispersive filter is polychromatically imaged on the exit port. The intermediate slit passes blocks selected wavelengths and transmits the remaining dispersed wavelengths from the first dispersion system to the second dispersion system. The second dispersion system combines the dispersed beam that passes through the intermediate slit to form an output beam, which is focused on the exit port. In this manner, the radiance of the input radiation is preserved ignoring losses caused by the optical elements and the blocked wavelengths.

Abstract: A light receiving optical system includes: a relay optical system for converging light to be measured which has been converged on an image plane of an objective optical system on a view angle defining aperture for incidence through the view angle defining aperture. The light receiving optical system has the relay optical system with a relay lens operable to be selectively switched between a first and a second conjugated positions, and a first and a second light flux limiting aperture members disposed in proximity to the relay lens in the case where the relay lens is selectively switched between the first and the second conjugated positions. The relay optical system selectively forms, on the image plane of the objective optical system, an enlarged image and a reduced image of the view angle defining aperture in the case where the relay lens is selectively switched between the first and the second conjugated positions to define an incident light flux through the view angle defining aperture by a first and a second light flux limiting apertures, respectively, in the case where the relay lens is selectively switched between the first and the second conjugated positions. A spectrophotometer has the light receiving optical system.

Abstract: In a spectrometer, preferably in a spectrometric microscope, light from a specimen is collected at a collector objective element and delivered to a camera element, which in turn provides the light to a photosensitive detector. A focal plane is provided between the collector objective element and the camera element, and one or more aperture arrays may be situated in the focal plane to restrict the detector's field of view of the specimen to the areas within the apertures. By utilizing aperture arrays with apertures of different sizes and shapes, the spatial resolution of the spectrometer readings may be varied without the need to vary the optics of the spectrometer. As a result, if the optics are optimized to minimize vignetting, spatial resolution may be varied without adverse increases in vignetting.
