Section outline

  • Students are going to set up a spectrometer to learn the working principle of a monochromator.

    The following experiments are going to be performed with advanced spectrometer kit:

    Experiment 1: Wavelength Measurement of Three Lines in the Mercury Spectrum

    Experiment 2: Measuring the Index of Refraction of the Prism Using a Known Spectral Line

    Advanced Spectrometer Kit and the experimental procedures are provided by Thorlabs Inc.
