ABSTRACT

The following is the alignment procedure of a conventional articulating spectrometer using a prism to find the spectrum of a light source. The procedure is very sensitive and needs very fine alignment and focusing. Figure B.1 shows a conventional articulating spectrometer using a prism. The following steps walk you through the alignment of each part of the conventional articulating spectrometer. Figure B.2 shows the experiment set-up for spectrum test using the conventional articulating spectrometer.
