This document outlines the components and configurations used for numerical simulations in applied molecular spectroscopy. Key elements include a fiber tip source, off-axis parabolic mirrors, quartz prisms, and achromats. The use of Newport optics and Esco products offers precision in spectral content across various wavelengths. Detailed simulation variables such as throughput, spectral resolution, and signal-to-background ratio are analyzed to optimize system performance. Insights into prism displacement and alignment of achromats are also discussed, emphasizing the importance of design fundamentals in spectrograph development.
