Product Overview
The Diffraction Grating 15000/7500/2500 LPI is engineered for high-resolution spectral dispersion, making it ideal for precision optical experiments. Constructed from replicated optical-grade resin, this grating ensures minimal stray light and maximum efficiency in diffraction patterns. The three available line densities (15000, 7500, and 2500 lines per inch) cater to varying experimental needs, from fine spectral separation to broader wavelength analysis. The replicated grade guarantees consistency in performance, with uniform groove spacing for reliable results across multiple trials. Designed for durability, this grating maintains its optical properties even under prolonged use in controlled lab environments. Its compatibility with standard optical setups simplifies integration into existing experimental configurations. Whether used in monochromators, spectrometers, or custom optical benches, this diffraction grating delivers sharp, high-contrast spectra for accurate data interpretation. The robust construction resists environmental factors like humidity and temperature fluctuations, ensuring long-term reliability in diverse laboratory conditions.
FAQs
1. What is the difference between 15000 LPI and 2500 LPI in terms of performance?
The 15000 LPI grating provides finer spectral resolution, separating closely spaced wavelengths more distinctly than the 2500 LPI version, which offers broader dispersion suitable for general analysis.
2. Can this diffraction grating be used with laser diodes?
Yes, it is compatible with laser diodes, though the choice of LPI should match the laser’s wavelength and desired diffraction angle for optimal results.
3. Are there any alternatives to replicated diffraction gratings?
Holographic gratings are an alternative, offering lower stray light but typically at higher cost, while ruled gratings provide custom groove profiles for specialized applications.
4. How should this grating be stored to maintain its optical quality?
Store in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight and dust. Use the original protective case or a sealed container to prevent surface contamination.
5. Does the grating require any special mounting hardware?
Standard optical mounts with adjustable angles are recommended. Ensure the mounting surface is free of debris to avoid scratching the grating surface during installation.
