Claim Text:
1. A spectrometer system, comprising: a light source configured to emit light from a sample, the emitted light comprising first light emitted in a first direction and second light emitted in a second direction different from the first direction; a light detection and measurement apparatus configured to perform emission spectrometry analysis on the sample by measuring intensity and wavelength of each of the first light and the second light; and a dichroic beam combiner configured to receive the first light via a first light path and the second light via a second light path, to reflect a reflected portion of the first light into an entrance aperture of the light detection and measurement apparatus, and to transmit a transmitted portion of the second light into the entrance aperture of the light detection and measurement apparatus, wherein the reflected portion of the first light reflected into the entrance aperture predominately has wavelengths in a first range of wavelengths, and the transmitted portion of the second light transmitted into the entrance aperture predominately has wavelengths in a second range of wavelengths different from the first range of wavelengths.
