US Patent 11656172 Multichannel angular spectrometer

A multichannel angular spectrometer includes an array of fiber pickups having an arcuate arrangement and focused about a sample volume. A broadband light source is configured to illuminate a sample within the sample volume. At least one dispersion element is in optical communication with the array of fiber pickups. An imaging sensor is in optical communication with the array of fiber pickups. The imaging sensor is configured to image the broadband light received by the array of fiber pickups and dispersed by the at least one dispersion element. A processor is in electrical communication with the imaging sensor. The processor has a power supply and computer-readable memory.
