An array of bandpass detectors for measuring beam spectral components
article
A clear understanding of the spectral components of an irradiated beam, or captured optical emission, is essential to optimize an optical system and increase its performance. Logically, for this purpose a grating-based spectrometer could be the first choice. However, in the case of a wide range spectrum, and for radiation with one dominant wavelength, this option may not work well. In this paper, we present a technique based on an array of bandpass detectors to measure accurately the power of a number of beam-specific spectral components in a wide spectrum range: from soft X-ray to infrared. The main unique features of this technique are: customization for specific wavelengths of interest; vacuum compatibility; and high sensitivity to low-energy spectral components in the presence of one or more dominant highpower spectral components.
