Abstract

A high-resolution spectroscopic facility, consisting of a 6.65-m vertical dispersion off-plane Eagle spectrograph/monochromator and a unique predisperser system of zero-dispersion type, has been designed and constructed at the Photon Factory. A description is given of design principle, optical system, mechanical arrangement, vacuum system, control system, and performance in the spectrograph mode. The resolving power was estimated from the separation between two closely lying lines of Ar I at ∼79 nm in the seventh order to be >2.5 × 105 —the highest resolving power ever demonstrated for this spectral region.
