We propose a spatial heterodyne Raman spectrometer (SHRS) based on a field-widened grating-echelle (FWGE). A normal grating is combined with an echelle grating in a conventional spatial heterodyne spectrometer to eliminate ghost images without using masks, and prevents interference among the spatial frequencies of different diffraction orders. Mathematical expressions and derivation processes are given for the spectral parameters in the FWGE-SHRS and a verification breadboard system is fabricated. The FWGE-SHRS measures Raman spectra of single chemicals and mixed targets with different integration times, laser powers, concentrations, and transparent containers. The results of the experiments demonstrate that the FWGE-SHRS is suitable for high-resolution, broadband Raman measurements for a wide range of applications.
