The 46-079 is a Near-IR (NIR) Reflective Gold Grating, sourced from the reputable optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. This grating, designed for use in the near-infrared spectrum, is a crucial component in various optical systems, including spectrometers and monochromators.
The grating is rectangular in shape, with dimensions of 12.7 mm in width, 12.7 mm in length, and 6 mm in thickness. It is fabricated from float glass, a type of glass known for its excellent optical quality and dimensional stability. The grating's surface is coated with a bare gold modification, which enhances its reflectivity in the NIR spectrum.
The grating features 830 grooves per millimeter, a blaze wavelength of 1200 nm, and a blaze angle of 29.87 degrees. These specifications contribute to the grating's high efficiency and excellent dispersion characteristics. The orientation vector of the grating is along the x-axis, and it operates in the -1st order. The grating side is the front, indicating that the incident and reflected light interact with the front surface of the grating.
