Overview
Large reflective diffraction grating on a thick glass substrate (“glass block”). Mirror-like grating face produces strong rainbow dispersion/diffraction. Plexiglass protective cover included (blue painter’s tape is only used to hold the cover in place for storage).
Size: Measured approx. 29 mm thick × 135.27 mm × 163.93 mm (about 5.5" × 6.33").
Markings
- Box label indicates: 5.5" × 6.5", 400 lines/mm (L/mm −1), blaze angle 9°44′.
- Back Bausch and Lomb label is present but not fully legible in photos or in person.
Condition
- Used. Moderate wear/spotting on reflective surface; see photos, no major damage noted.
- Protective plexiglass cover present.
Quick Function Check
- With the grating approx. 5 ft from a wall, a green laser produces distinct diffraction orders. Measured separation is ~14 in from 0th order to +1, and ~14 in from 0th order to −1 (symmetric), consistent with a ~400 lines/mm class grating.
- Photos show the diffraction behavior.
Weight: Glass block weighs 4 lb (without packaging).
Typical Applications; Spectrometers, monochromators, spectroscopy/optical bench work, analytical instrumentation, experimental optics.
