Advanced Spectrometry Kit

The working of a spectrometer is based on the principle that when light falls on an optical device such as a prism or diffraction grating each wavelength is refracted or bent by a unique angle. A precise spectrum can be determined by measuring the angles at which light is refracted or bent.

Features:

• Main scale & Vernier scale are made of Brass on CNC machine.
• Four Vernier used to remove eccentric error.
• Least count 20 sec. for precise measurement.
• Highly stable spectrometer body (weight 8.5 kg approx.).
• Supplied in black wooden box.
• Adjustable optical arms to coincide axis of collimeter & telescope.
• Optics aperture 32 mm for better resolution.

Objectives:

• To determine the dispersion & resolving power of the prism.
• To determine the wavelength of sodium light & also determine resolving power of using a diffraction grating.
• To determine angular dispersive by grating or prism.
• To determine the refractive index of prism.
• To determine wavelength of mercury spectral lines (optional).
• To verify Cauchy’s equation (using Mercury light source). To draw graph
  (i) between wavelength ( λ) and minimum 2derivation angle.
  (ii) between 1/ λ and minimum angle for prism for various lines from the spectrum of mercury discharge source.
