Abstract

An optical system and a method for separating overlapping spectra from a diffraction grating and an imaging spectrometer with increased free spectral range are disclosed. The light from a diffraction grating consists of multiple spectra overlapping each other and displaced along a spectral axis. The invention directs the light from the grating to a refractive element such, as a prism. The prism further disperses the light along the same spectral axis. The individual spectra are sufficiently displaced such that they no longer interfere with each other.
