Request InfoMcPHERSONThe triple monochromator from McPherson Inc. is ideal for Raman, photoluminescence and Thomson-scattering measurements. The triple configuration allows users to create a bandpass notch of select wavelengths and disperse onto sensitive CCD or other array detector. The width and slope of the notches' edges can be tailored for the user’s application. For ultimate throughput, McPherson also offers the triple monochromator with astigmatic optics for point-to-point imaging. The McPherson triple monochromator uses exclusively reflective optics and is capable of working deep into...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPromoted Content September 2022 IssueBest-in-Class Spectroscopy is Just a Grating AwayThe grating used in a spectrometer design plays a defining role in its performance.
