  • Patent number: 10571442
    Abstract: A technique and device to determine the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation in a certain range of wavelengths comprising: splitting said radiation into more than one beam; let these beams counter-propagate in a Sagnac-type ring interferometer; and imprinting a wavelength-dependent angular tilt onto the wavefront of each beam by at least one dispersive element which preferably is a transmission grating or grism; and re-combining the multiple beams on a detector that exhibits spatial resolution and can therefore resolve the fringes formed by interference; and perform the mathematical operations to determine the spectrum of said radiation from the obtained interferogram, wherein the dispersive element is mounted on a stage providing linear and/or rotational movement.

  • Publication number: 20150241280
    Abstract: A technique and device to determine the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation in a certain range of wavelengths comprising: splitting said radiation into more than one beam; and imprinting a wavelength-dependent angular tilt onto the wavefront of each beam by two dispersive elements; and re-combining the multiple beams on a detector that exhibits spatial resolution and can therefore resolve the fringes formed by interference; and perform the mathematical operations to determine the spectrum of said radiation from the obtained interferogram, wherein the dispersive elements of one beam are mounted on a common stage providing linear and/or rotational movement

  • Patent number: 8313479
    Abstract: The invention involves a device and a procedure for refractive laser surgery on a target object. With the aid of a laser beam source, an fs-impulse laser beam is generated. A second laser beam source generates a UV laser beam. A shared scanner device utilises the fs-impulse laser beam and the UV laser beam for the scanning of the target object.
