Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) Spectrometer is a technique used to drive 3D images of the internal layers and structures of a tissue sample unreachable by other techniques or surgery. Like other spectrometers, this spectrometer has the advantage of limiting analysis time by obtaining results with just one exposure. Using a spectrometer, a laser beam is directed at a region of tissue, with a reference beam aimed to a mirror. An OCT spectrometer’s resolution can be .08 nm or less. The exceptionally low signal to noise ratios obtained using an OCT spectrometer increase reliability and throughput.
This
spectrometer employs the highly efficient Volume Phase Grating (VPG) as the
spectral dispersion element and an ultra sensitive 1024 pixel array detector as
the detection element, thereby providing high-speed parallel processing and
continuous spectrum measurement. This device uses a single mode fiber, then
collimating it with a micro lans. This technique has flexible options for
center wavelength and spectral bandwidth. This device features with easy to use
GUI-based software for capturing and manipulating data. This device accepts
single mode fiber optic inputs and customizable via grating inserts to match
the wavelength of the user’s light source.
This
device never requires alignment and can be customized for high resolution
preference. Standard fabrication process used in this device is easily
transferable. Spectrometer on chip solutions are robust, miniaturized optical
engines designed for high performance measurement and at a fraction of size
weight and cost of free space systems. This OCT device used in many different
biomedical applications with retinal imaging being the most successful and the
driving force behind much OCT development. OCT uses low coherence interferometer in which
light source is split between that that entering the eye and a reference path.
Hence,
these are the features of the device and for purchasing an OCT spectrometer, always choose a reputed supplier that deals in high quality products.
