ROCK spectrometers
When efficiency matters
If you have trouble getting enough light and SNR in your spectroscopy system, a ROCK spectrometer could be the solution. The ROCK family of spectrometers is a series of industrial-grade OEM spectrometers that provide extremely high optical throughput. Various wavelength bands ranging from the visible to the extended near-infrared are supported through our different ROCK variants.
The high sensitivity of our ROCK spectrometers is made possible by our unique in-house manufactured transmission gratings with the world's best diffraction efficiency combined with our efficient optical benches.
Key benefits
If the specifications of our standard ROCK configurations do not match your requirements, Ibsen can customize a ROCK spectrometer to meet your exact needs.
The world’s best broadband gratings
The high sensitivity of our ROCK spectrometers is made possible by our unique in-house manufactured transmission gratings.
Our gratings provide unparalleled high broadband efficiency, enabled by optimized groove profiles, a thin optical path, and a high refractive index contrast. The inherent nature of fused silica ensures our gratings are thermally stable, while working in transmission providing angle insensitivity and vibrational stability.
We design our ROCK spectrometers to perfectly match and supplement the performance of our gratings, but we also supply gratings for use in your own spectrometer design.

Ibsen as your spectrometer manufacturer
At Ibsen, we understand that volume manufacturing of application-specific spectrometers is a completely different task than building a single scientific instrument. We are an ISO 9001 and 13485 certified manufacturer with decades of experience in volume manufacturing of OEM spectrometers.
Our emphasis is on the high and consistent quality of our products, ensured through our proven, robust designs and 100% outgoing inspection. Our low unit-to-unit variation can help you achieve a lean manufacturing process and deliver products with a consistently high quality to your customers.
Our spectrometer designs have undergone environmental qualification to ensure proper operation within specified thermal, humidity, vibrational, and drop test conditions.
We have established long-term relationships with a range of qualified sub-suppliers, ensuring you a stable supply chain. Furthermore, we offer our OEM customers flexible supply options, typically based on frame order contracts or Kanban agreements.
All in all, Ibsen Photonics is a well-established spectrometer supplier that enables you to focus on your core business.
