Abstract
The present invention relates to a double pass monochromator that improves wavelength resolution and reduces the actual length thereof. A return reflection means 7 that reverses the direction of dispersion of the wavelength of the second pass light 1c, 1f emitted and incident on a diffraction grating 4 during the reflection. In addition, the angles of the incident and emitted light during separation of spectral components by the diffraction grating are identical during the first and second diffraction.
