Researchers from School of Information Science and Engineering of Fudan University recently have succeeded in developing a new spectrometer which runs 6,000 times faster than the traditional one.
This new device, called "two-dimensional CCD array detector" spectrometer, can combine 10 pieces of raster to make "integrated raster" to sort out photons with different wavelengths and reflect them to the detector at the same time. In this way, the device can finish a task that it previously takes 10 minutes to complete within only 0.1 second.
