SuperGamut SWIR Imaging Spectrometer

By BaySpec, Inc

900nm to 1700nm Wavelength Range with Lens Assembly BaySpec’s SuperGamut series dispersive NIR spectral engines are designed to meet real-world challenges for best-in-class performance and long-term reliability. Benefiting from experience manufacturing high-volume optical channel performance monitoring devices for the telecommunications industry, BaySpec’s NIR spectral devices utilize low-cost field proven components. For the first time in instrumentation history an affordable, accurate and ruggedized spectral device is a reality. The SuperGamut Series employs a highly efficient Volume Phase Grating (VPG) as the spectral dispersion element and an ultra-sensitive InGaAs array detector as the detection element, thereby providing high-speed parallel processing and continuous spectrum measurements. As an input, the device uses a fiber optic input or slit optics arrangement based on customer preferences. The signal is spectrally dispersed with the VPG and the diffracted field is focused onto an InGaAs array detector. The control electronics read out the processed digital signal to extract required information. Both the raw data and the processed data are available to the host.
