Why must the slit width of a prism monochromator be varied to provide constant effective bandwidths but a nearly constant slit width provides cnstant bandwidth with a grating monochromator?

Prisms and gratings have different dispersive properties. Grating has a linear dispersion of wavelengths meaning the band on the focal plane varies linearly with the wavelength. Prisms are not linear, the shorter the wavelength the greater the dispersion. Thus, when a spectrum is being scanned, the dispersive device needs to rotates different amounts depending on whether it is prism or grating to focus light on the exit slit. If its grating, the slit width will need to be varied minimally; if it is a prism, the slit width will need larger changes as the dispersion gets greater.

A diffraction grating does.


Why glass slab does not produce dispersion?

What is Difference between prismatic spectrum and grating spectrum?

Grating spectrum is a spectrum produced as a result of diffraction, as by a grating.Whereas prismatic spectrum is a consequence of dispersion of light by a prism. In grating spectrum you also observe different orders of spectral lines which does not happen in prismatic spectrum. Hope this helps VIBHAV ZUTSHI B.Tech '13 IIT Kharagpur


What is main difference between prism spectrum and grating spectrum?

Prism spectrum is formed due to DISPERSION but grating spectrum is formed due to DIFFRACTION. In prism spectrum we have only one order but in grating spectrum we can have second order too IN prism spectrum we have continuous spectrum but in gratings we have only line spectrum In prism spectrum red end will be closer to the direct ray but in grating spectrum violet end will be closer to the direct ray

What kind of pattern of light would you get if you shone monochromatic light on a diffraction grating?

If you shone monochromatic light on a diffraction grating it would alternate bright and dark bands. Only white light white light shone through a diffraction grating would produce a band of colors.


How can I avoid barbecue grill grating?

A good tip to avoid barbecue grill grating is firstly ensuring that you have a clean grate to use. A clean grill will not only produce better tasting food it will also last longer.
