We considered comparative modeling action of a hyperspectrometer based on the Offner scheme including prisms or a diffraction grating within the geometrical optics. It is shown that the use of a diffraction grating instead of a prism results in a more uniform spread of the spectral components of the dispersed image.

A dispersive element in the form of the diffraction grating on a convex mirror surface is investigated. The groove profile of the grating is measured and the intensity distribution between the diffraction orders is calculated as a function of wavelength for the visible spectrum. Optomechanical elements for the required alignments of the spectrometer elements are designed and fabricated. Adjustment of a prototype optical scheme is implemented and point images for three monochromatic incident wavelengths are obtained. The energy distribution between the diffraction orders and the intensity maxima positions are in agreement with the simulation results.
