Abstract

A modular spectrometer system is disclosed which includes various types of standard building blocks which permit: (a) a multiple accessory system in which experiments can be readily switched from one accessory to another; and (b) easy and cost effective revision of the multiple accessory system as desired. Optical switch components are provided which facilitate steering and switching of the radiation paths, and which are capable of being assembled from standard parts. Modular connecting tubes and interface elements are provided to interconnect components in the system. Component substitutions and position adjustments may be readily accomplished without loss of alignment in the system.
