TriVista DM-Series Double Monochromators
Based on the highly successful SpectraPro® direct digital scanning monochromators and spectrographs, DM-Series Double Monochromators offer unique capabilities for light research applications. They include two precision SpectraPro monochromators used in series where the exit slit of the first monochromator stage is the entrance slit to the second monochromator stage. The systems are able to work in an additive mode for increased dispersion and exceptional stray light rejection and in subtractive mode to work as a tuneable bandpass filter. As a pre monochromator at a TriVista Raman System the DM-55i and DM-77i has an excelent stray light rejection in subtractive mode.
Both stages are mounted to a rigid, common baseplate for exceptional stability.
Triple Indexable Gratings
DM-Series double monochromators feature interchangeable triple grating turrets, allowing up to three gratings to be installed at the same time and selected by computer control. The operational range can be increased by selecting gratings with different groove frequencies. System throughput can be maximized by selecting gratings with blaze efficiencies matched to the specific wavelength region of interest.
Accessories, Gratings and System Solutions
S&I offers a complete selection of accessories for DM double monochromators, including light sources, detectors, fiber optic probes, and sample chambers. Hundreds of different gratings are also available to help optimize each instrument for specific applications.
Double or Single Monochromator Operation
DM-Series instruments can be operated as precision double monochromators or as independent high performance single monochromators.
Additive and Subtractive Dispersion
DM-Series instruments can be simply switched by software selection between additive and subtractive Dispersion.
In the second stage re-disperses the light, increasing spectral dispersion while further reducing stray
light levels.
In the first and second stages work as a tuneable bandpass filter to allow only the desired portion of spectrum to pass through.
