10/23/12 <strong>BESOS</strong>: a <strong>prism</strong> <strong>spectrograph</strong> |<br />
Two LINOS (now Qioptiq) doublets were chosen as collimator and objective respectively. An equilateral 60º <strong>prism</strong> from<br />
Edmund Optics was used as disperser. The image quality at 400, 550 and 700 nm is illustrated in the following Figure.<br />
The square is 20 μm side. The images for these 3 wavelengths were optimized to have their minimum spot<br />
size perpendicular to the dispersion.<br />
