Dear all,
I am going to realize an experimental optical setup and I need your suggestions to make the correct selection of lenses.
A polychromatic light beam coming from a monochromator (400-700, slit dimension: 1 mm)
has to be focused onto the base of a cylindrical lens (acting as a prism).
I need the light beam striking onto the glass prism being almost parallel through the path along the prism.
I think that a convergent beam with a section of 2 mm can “simulate” this ideal situation.
Can you suggest me a combination of lenses able to direct the light beam from the monochromator to the prism?
Thank you in advance
