Abstract
A device for selectively detecting specific wavelength components of a light beam includes a spectral spreading element for spectrally spreading the light beam, and a detector array arranged downstream of the element. The detector array includes light-insensitive regions and light-sensitive regions. The element and the detector array are matched to each other so that selectable wavelength components of the light beam hit the light-insensitive regions and remaining wavelength components of the light beam hit the light-sensitive regions.
