A reflective grating such as a diffraction or holographic grating situated on the circumference of a Rowland circle along with a point of light emission and a detector may be a configuration of the spectrometer. Some configurations may use an external light source where the light may be optically conveyed to the point of emission on the circle. There may be a Raman configuration where an interaction of light with a sample or an interactive film of a channel in a fluid analyzer is the point of light emission for the spectrometer. In some configurations of the spectrometer, the grating and/or the film may be reflective or transmissive.

Abstract: A vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) in which a higher order lasing mode produces a Gaussian-like single mode far field beam intensity pattern. Such a VCSEL includes a protective surface deposition on a VCSEL structure, and phase filter elements on the surface deposition. The surface deposition and the phase filter elements implement an optical phase filter that induces optical path difference such that a single mode far field beam intensity pattern results when the VCSEL operates in a higher order lasing mode. The VCSEL can include structures that enhance a selected higher-order operating mode and/or that suppress unwanted operating modes.
