conjunction with Andor InGaAs cameras and single point
detectors InGaAs, PbS, InSb & MCT
High resolution and multi-track performance spectrograph
The Shamrock 500i is the platform of choice for high resolution measurements with outstanding multi-track capabilities, but without compromise in configuration versatility and ease of use. This rugged platform features a comprehensive range of light coupling accessories and gratings, and combines ideally with Andor’s market leading CCD,
Electron Multiplying CCDs, and InGaAs and Intensified CCDs. Andor’s latest addition of single point detectors for scanning monochromator applications up to the LWIR (12 μm) enhances even further the capabilities of this system. State-of-the-art Solis Spectroscopy and Solis Scanning software offer a dedicated and intuitive interfaces
for spectrograph, detectors and motorized accessory control as well as easy detection parameter set-up.

Step-by-Step System Configuration
How to customize the Shamrock 500i:
Chassis configuration
a) Select combination of input and output ports (see page 3 for available options).
b) Select type of optics coating required (aluminium + MgF2 is standard, protected silver coated optics available on request for NIR detection).
c) Select purge port option (for improved detection down to 180 nm), and shutter for background acquisition and detectors protection.
Resolution & band-pass
a) Select the appropriate Shamrock spectrograph platform, giving due consideration to bandpass and spectral range requirement.
b) Select gratings and detector to fulfil resolution requirements.
c) Select gratings for suitable wavelength coverage.
Input light coupling interface
Refer to accessory tree for available configurations (direct coupling, fibre coupling or 3rd party hardware connectivity).
2nd exit port configuration
Refer to accessory tree for available configurations, including camera flanges.
Software interface
Select either state-of-the-art Solis software or Software Development Kit (SDK) option – please refer to appropriate
section for further information.

Optics Coatings Reflectivity Graph
The graph shows the standard Al + MgF2 optics coatings reflection efficiency versus wavelength.Protected silver coated optics option is also available on request for maximum efficiency in the NIR region and is recommended for working with Andor iDus InGaAs detectors or IR single-point detectors, such as MCT, PbS and InSb.
When choosing protected silver coatings, it is strongly recommended to also order protected silver coated gratings for maximum efficiency throughout the system.
