Abstract
Raman spectroscopy allows for the unambiguous identification of materials through the inelastic scattering of light. This technique has a great many uses in various aspects of society from academic, scientific, and industry. This paper explores a specific type of Raman spectrometer called a spatial heterodyne Raman spectrometer (SHRSy), which is a variation of an interferometric spectrometer. It utilizes a Michelson interferometer and replaces the mirrors with gratings that transform it from a time-domain spectrometer to a spatial-domain spectrometer, allowing for the entirety of the spectrum to be captured at once. This study specifically tests a half-inch two-grating monolithic SHRS (½-in. 2g-mSHRS), which has a weight of <60 g and a size of 2.2 × 2.2 × 1.3 cm. To do this we excite a variety of organic liquids with a 532 nm neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) pulsed laser, using an excitation energy of 6.5 mJ/pulse and distance of 3 m in conjunction with an intensified charge-coupled device camera. This is the first time that the SHRS has been used for investigating polarized Raman spectra of liquids. We discuss and contrast the instrumental properties such as resolution, spectral range, étendue, and field of view with previously tested mSHRS to give context to the instrument's performance.

Abstract
We propose a high-resolution, broad-spectral-range spatial heterodyne Raman spectrometer (SHRS) having separate filters and multi-gratings (SFMG). A prototype of the SFMG-SHRS is built using multi-gratings with four sub-gratings having groove densities of 320, 298, 276, and 254 gr/mm and separate filters with filter bands corresponding to the sub-gratings. We use the SFMG-SHRS to measure the Raman spectra of inorganic and organic compounds with various integration times, laser power, and transparent containers, compare measurements of microplastics with and without the separate filters, and measure mixtures of inorganic powders and organic solutions. The designed SFMG-SHRS makes high-resolution, broad-spectral-range Raman measurements with improved signal-to-noise ratios and visibility of weak Raman peaks even in the presence of fluorescence.

Abstract
Spatial heterodyne Raman spectrometers (SHRSs) are modified forms of Michelson interferometers, except the mirrors in a Michelson interferometer are replaced with stationary diffraction gratings. This design removes the need for an entrance slit, as is the case in a dispersive spectrometer, and removes the need to scan the spectrum by using a moving mirror in a modern Michelson interferometer. In previous studies, various SHRS variants, such as free-standing two-grating SHRS, single-grating SHRS (1g-SHRS), monolithic SHRS (mSHRS), and single-grating mSHRS (1g-mSHRS), have been evaluated. However, the present study exclusively focuses on the 1g-mSHRS configuration. The 1g-mSHRS and 1g-SHRS increase the spectral range at fixed grating line density while trading off spectral resolution and resolving power. The mSHRS benefits from increased rigidity, lack of moving parts, and reduced footprint. In this study, we investigate how the choice of detector impacts the performance of the 1g-mSHRS system, with a specific focus on evaluating the performance of three types of cameras: charged-coupled device (CCD), intensified CCD (ICCD), and complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) cameras. These systems were evaluated using geological, organic, and inorganic samples using a 532 nm continuous wave laser for the CMOS and CCD cameras, and a 532 nm neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet pulsed laser for the ICCD camera. The footprint of the 1g-mSHRS was 3.5 × 3.5 × 2.5 cm3 with a mass of 272 g or 80 g, depending on whether the monolith housing is included or not. We found that increasing the number of pixels utilized along the x-axis of the camera increases fringe visibility (FV) and optimizes the resolution (by capturing the entirety of the grating and magnifying the fringes). The number of pixels utilized in the y-axis, chip size, and dimensions, affect the signal-to-noise ratio of the systems. Additionally, we discuss the effect of pixel pitch on the recovery of Fizeau fringes, including the relationship between the Nyquist frequency, aliasing, and FV.

Abstract
A cross-dispersed spatial heterodyne spectrometer (CDSHS) that integrates a spatial heterodyne spectrometer (SHS), a reflection grating, and a cylindrical lens is presented. Expressions for the width, height, and location of the cross-dispersed interferograms corresponding to narrow spectral regions are given. An example CDSHS design, including numerical simulations of the interferogram and the spectrum, is provided to illustrate the designed system. The results show that the CDSHS can simultaneously disperse longitudinally and laterally to record interferograms corresponding to different narrow spectral regions with different rows on a charge-coupled device, and obtain independent detailed spectra simultaneously with a high signal-to-noise ratio. Additionally, high-intensity light rays at a specific wavelength in the CDSHS do not interfere with the detailed spectra of the other wavelengths. Simultaneously, the CDSHS offers advantages including high resolution, high throughput, broadband operation, compactness, and zero moving parts. The CDSHS shows great application potential in fields including multiple spectral feature measurement, weak spectral measurements.

Abstract
A monolithic spatial heterodyne Raman spectrometer (mSHRS) is described, where the optical components of the spectrometer are bonded to make a small, stable, one-piece structure. This builds on previous work, where we described bench top spatial heterodyne Raman spectrometers (SHRS), developed for planetary spacecraft and rovers. The SHRS is based on a fixed grating spatial heterodyne spectrometer (SHS) that offers high spectral resolution and high light throughput in a small footprint. The resolution of the SHS is not dependent on a slit, and high resolution can be realized without using long focal length dispersing optics since it is not a dispersive device. Thus, the SHS can be used as a component in a compact Raman spectrometer with high spectral resolution and a large spectral range using a standard 1024 element charge-coupled device. Since the resolution of the SHRS is not dependent on a long optical path, it is amenable to the use of monolithic construction techniques to make a compact and robust device. In this paper, we describe the use of two different monolithic SHSs (mSHSs), with Littrow wavelengths of 531.6 nm and 541.05 nm, each about 3.5 × 3.5 × 2.5 cm in size and weighing about 80 g, in a Raman spectrometer that provides ∼3500 cm-1 spectral range with 4-5 cm-1 and 8-9 cm-1 resolution, for 600 grooves/mm and 150 grooves/mm grating-based mSHS devices, respectively. In this proof of concept paper, the stability, spectral resolution, spectral range, and signal-to-noise ratio of the mSHRS spectrometers are compared to our bench top SHRS that uses free-standing optics, and signal to noise comparisons are also made to a Kaiser Holospec f/1.8 Raman spectrometer.

Abstract
Spatial heterodyne spectroscopy (SHS) is used for quantitative analysis and classification of liquid samples. SHS is a version of a Michelson interferometer with no moving parts and with diffraction gratings in place of mirrors. The instrument converts frequency-resolved information into a spatially resolved one and records it in the form of interferograms. The back-extraction of spectral information is done by the fast Fourier transform. A SHS instrument is constructed with the resolving power 5000 and spectral range 522-593 nm. Two original technical solutions are used as compared to previous SHS instruments: the use of a high-frequency diode-pumped solid-state laser for excitation of Raman spectra and a microscope-based collection system. Raman spectra are excited at 532 nm at the repetition rate 80 kHz. Raman shifts between 330 cm-1 and 1600 cm-1 are measured. A new application of SHS is demonstrated: for the first time, it is used for quantitative Raman analysis to determine concentrations of cyclohexane in isopropanol and glycerol in water. Two calibration strategies are employed: univariate based on the construction of a calibration plot and multivariate based on partial least squares regression. The detection limits for both cyclohexane in isopropanol and glycerol in water are at a 0.5 mass% level. In addition to the Raman-SHS chemical analysis, classification of industrial oils (biodiesel, poly(1-decene), gasoline, heavy oil IFO380, polybutenes, and lubricant) is performed using the Raman-fluorescence spectra of the oils and principal component analysis. The oils are easily discriminated showing distinct non-overlapping patterns in the principal component space.
