ABSTRACT:
An Ebert monochromator for a spectrophotometer in which the diffraction grating is positioned off of the central optical axis of the collimator mirror by interpositioning a plane mirror between the collimator mirror and the diffraction grating. The plane mirror may be movable to select one of several diffraction gratings. By arranging the diffraction grating about an axis parallel with the central optical axis, a simple mechanical wavelength drive system with a common cam shaft driving the grating, a filter holder, and a rotatable slit plate can be provided. Further gratings may be driven from the cam shaft as may also the movable plane mirror which selects them.
