Abstract
A spectrophotometer incorporating an interferometer and a dispersive system is adapted to have an enlarged inlet field without degrading its spatial resolution. To this end, spectral data deduced horn measurements performed by means of the interferometer are transferred into spectral data deduced from measurements per formed by means of the dispersive system. Such spectrophotometer makes it possible to scan an observation field quickly, and is compatible with use on board a satellite.
