Hamamatsu Photonics has newly developed the world’s tiniest grating spectrometer offering high sensitivity, compact size, light weight and low cost.

Hamamatsu Photonics has newly developed the world’s smallest (in-house survey), grating spectrometer “SMD series mini-spectrometer C14384MA” offering high near-infrared sensitivity, compact size, light weight and low cost. Our C14384MA has a cubic size of about 1/40th, and weight of about 1/30th that of our MS series mini-spectrometers with sensitivity in the same near-infrared range, yet the sensitivity is about 50 times higher. This makes the C14384MA ideal for applications where real-time on-site measurement is required such as quality inspections of food or agricultural crops and even environmental analysis from a quadcopters or drones. We will start accepting sample product orders from domestic and overseas measurement and inspection equipment manufacturers from November 1 (Thursday), 2018.

This product will be on display at the Hamamatsu Photonics exhibition “PHOTON FAIR 2018” to be held for the first time in 5 years at Act City Hamamatsu (Naka-ku, Hamamatsu City, Japan) for 3 days from November 1 (Thursday).
