Classic C-T spectrometers offer a number of key benefits:-
- High optical resolution
- High sensitivity
- Low stray light
- Fast spectral response
Variations on the classic Czerny-Turner cavity are used in OtO's folded cavity design (HummingBird, PocketHawk & PocketHawk-NIR) and the "Bullet" series which replace the separate collimating and focusing mirror optical elements with a single curved mirror performing both functions.
OtO's MEMS-based microspectrometers replace the "collimator-plane grating-focusing mirror" optical structure used in traditional Czerny-Turner spectrometers with a "non-spherical, mass-producible" micro-sized component which combines grating and focusing functions. The microchip concave grating technology leverages patented algorithms to calculate curvature and ray-tracing to eliminate aberrations and achieve high resolution.
Advantages of OtO's MEMS-based UltraMicro (330-850nm) and RedSparrow (900-1700nm) microspectrometers include:-
- Small size and low power consumption
- Highly resistant to vibration
- Easy integration into OEM systems
- High volume production with low cost
When combined with OtO’s high-precision optomechanical designs and SpectraSmart software the MEMS grating technology enables microspectrometers which push the performance envelope to deliver the benefits of high accuracy, ultra-compactness, shock resistance, weather resistance and low cost.
