Abstract:
The invention concerns an optical grating drive apparatus wherein a carriage for multiple diffraction gratings is movable between a plurality of locations, there being stops to limit carriage movement at such locations in which different gratings are selectively presented in the path of an incident beam; also a plurality of cam followers are shiftable relative to rotary cam means between positions in which different followers selectively engage the cam means and are displaced in response to cam means rotation; the followers and carriage have operative interconnection such that when a selected follower is engaged with the cam means the carriage may occupy alternate locations in order to selectively present corresponding gratings to the beam path; and displacement of a selected follower in response to cam rotation effects rotation of a selected grating in the beam path.

Abstract:
The present invention provides a wide-filed spectral imaging system including a laser generator, a wavelength adjustment module, an objective lens, and a single-pixel imaging and a spectral separating module. The laser generator is configured to generate a laser excitation beam. The wavelength adjustment module is configured to disperse the laser excitation beam into a plurality of beams of different wavelengths. The objective lens is configured to focus the plurality of beams of different wavelengths on a sample to excite molecules under test in the sample and generate an emission light. The single-pixel imaging and spectral separating module is configured to generate a series of patterns and modulate the emission light with the series of patterns to generate a diffracted beam. The single-pixel imaging and spectral separating module further disperses the wavelength of the diffracted beam, collects light signals of the expanded diffracted beam, and performs a spectral image reconstruction.
