Spectrographs

Andor offers spectrograph platforms tailored to your needs.

Andor’s spectrograph family is based on Czerny-Turner, Echelle, or transmission optics, providing a range of highly configurable or specialized platforms that best meet your experimental requirements.

• Andor’s technical expertise extends far beyond market-leading performance detectors with a comprehensive range of high-end spectrographs. At the heart of this portfolio are the new Kymera and Shamrock series Czerny-Turner spectrographs. These are true platforms, offering ultimate flexibility and performance with their "out-of-the-box" approach, pre-alignment, pre-calibration, and seamless combination with our highly sensitive spectroscopy cameras.

• The Mechelle 5000 is Andor’s dedicated detection solution for broadband and high-resolution LIBS. Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is used to determine the elemental composition of various solids, liquids, and gases. A high-power laser pulse is focused on a sample to generate a plasma. The emission from the atoms and ions in the plasma is collected and analyzed with a spectrograph and gated detector to determine the elemental composition or concentrations in the sample.

• Andor offers a range of market-leading high-performance, ultra-sensitive spectroscopy detectors. Andor’s CCDs, ICCDs, EMCCDs, sCMOS, and InGaAs arrays cover a range from the VUV to near-infrared spectral regions, with a unique combination of high sensitivity (down to single photons in the case of EMCCD technology) and ultra-fast acquisition speeds.
