Two diffraction gratings increase the spectroscopic resolution, and the effective measuring range can be extended considerably. Instead of calibrating the wavelength, we used the Fabry−Perot Etalon (standard) to calibrate the system and determine the absolute position. The rotation diffraction gratings may also be used as a spectroscopic element over extensive ranges for low-cost and high-speed measurement. Our experiments indicate a length range of approximately 4.00 mm with repeatability of 0.17μm (0.0167%) for the narrow range and 3.84 μm (0.0955%) for the wide range.
