Development of an Ultra-Sensitive Spectrometer
A high dynamic range imaging (HDRI) spectroscopic instrument was designed and developed in this thesis. Achieving higher measurement accuracy in imaging spectroscopic measurements require both a suppression of the background light (stray light) as well as HDR imaging. A Digital Micromirror Device (DMD), which spatially modulates the light, was employed in the designed spectrometer to produce HDRI
