The optimal grating for the selected chip will be included in the ECLK. If the user needs to operate the kit with chips of incompatible wavelength ranges it is possible to purchase additional gratings.

cm-1/s

The values for a specific configuration will depend on wavelength and grating selected.Specific devices will have a fixed angular sensitivity taking a value between 7.5 cm-1/° and 36.7 cm-1/°. The sweep rate of the motor can be varied by the user from 0.008 °/s to 360 °/s.
