14. In this study, the image distribution generated by the optical system of the spectrometer (grating replaced by a plane mirror) is defined as the normalized irradianceE(y)/E(0) within the exit slit along the coordinatey. The image width is the 40%-width Δy 0.4 of the image distribution. However, due to the different usage in [11], the ray tracing width is introduced as the 50%-width Δy 0.5 of the image distribution. If the plane mirror is replaced by the echelle grating, the image distribution becomes the instrumental function

17. According to the Rayleigh criterion, the resolving powerR of a spectrometer is approximately given byR≈λ/Δλ0.4. Δλ0.4 represents the 40%-width of the instrumental function experssed in wavelength units.R=nk is identical toR≈λ/Δλ0.4 in spectrometers with diffraction-limited resolving power
