Unlike the single grating Czerny-Turner configuration spectrometers, a super-high spectral resolution optical spectrometer with zero coma aberration is first experimentally demonstrated by using a compound integrated diffraction grating module consisting of 44 high dispersion sub-gratings and a two-dimensional backside-illuminated charge-coupled device array photodetector. The demonstrated super-high resolution spectrometer gives 0.005 nm (5 pm) spectral resolution in ultra-violet range and 0.

Optical spectrometers play a key role in acquiring rich photonic information in both scientific research and a wide variety of applications. In this work, we present a new spectrometer with an ultrahigh resolution of better than 0.012 nm/pixel in the 170-600 nm spectral region using a grating-integrated module that consists of 19 subgratings without any moving parts.

Optical spectrometers play an important role in modern scientific research. In this work, we present a two-channel spectrometer with a pixel resolution of better than 0.1 nm/pixel in the wavelength range of 200 to 950 nm and an acquisition speed of approximately 25 spectra per second.

A high-voltage (10 kV) electrostatic antisolvent process was used to prepare methotrexate (MTX)-loaded, large, highly-porous poly-L-lactide (PLLA) microspheres. MTX solution in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and PLLA solution in dichloromethane (DCM) were homogeneously mixed, and then ammonium bicarbonate (AB) aqueous solution was added. The mixed solution was emulsified by ultrasonication with Pluronic F127 (PF127) as an emulsion stabilizer.
