Diffraction GratingsPlane Holographic Gratings for High Resolution Spectrometers (3000 grooves/mm or more)

PLANE HOLOGRAPHIC GRATINGS for HIGH RESOLUTION SPECTROMETERS
  • Higher groove density than conventional products (fewer than 2400 grooves/mm) enables higher optical resolution of spectrometers.
  • The grating grooves are produced by a holographic exposure method. Using this method ensures that the amount of stray light due to periodic errors is much less than mechanically ruled gratings.
  • Shimadzu’s replica technology provides high-quality products.
  • In addition to standard products, requests for special order products are available.
