One of the trends in the conventional spectroscopy lies in substituting CCD arrays and matrices for the single-channel detectors. The multichannel detection allows recording of one or several spectra at a time. 2D CCD-detectors with high resolution (up to several million pixels) enable one to obtain information regarding the dimensions and spectral characteristics of the object under study by detecting images at a few wavelengths. The flexibility of the experimental arrangement is provided by optical waveguides and fibers.
