Our XUV / VUV spectrograph features aberration-corrected flat-field wavelength coverage from 1nm to 200nm. Wide-band spectral measurements are possible by three gratings covering 1-20nm, 5-80nm, and 40-200nm. The spectrometer can be used without entrance slit to maximize light collection for a range of source distances.

Its modular design is able to match different experimental geometries and configurations. It features an integrated slit holder and filter insertion unit, as well as a motorized grating positioning.
