Abstract
In frame of the ESA Earthcare MSI study, TNO Science and Industry has developed a compact spectrometer which is optimized for operation in the 7 to 14 μm wavelength region. By optimizing the throughput of the system, and using the advantages of modern manufacturing technologies to the largest extend possible, an instrument has been created that can be flown on a multitude of missions. Extensions to other wavelength regions can be accommodated due to the all reflective fore optics system.
