The invention relates to a device for the spectrally resolved detection of optical radiation (5) during a thermal process, more particularly during laser processing. The device comprises at least two elements (4.1, 4.2) which are light-sensitive in one 5 predefined wavelength range each, a reflective diffraction grating (2), and at least one lens (3) for focusing and collimation. The device optionally comprises a reflective beam splitter (1) designed to divide the incident optical radiation (5) into a plurality of partial beams (5.1, 5.2). Said reflective beam splitter (1) is disposed upstream of the at least one lens (3) along the propagation direction of the optical radiation (5). The partial beams (5.1, 5.2) are spectrally split by means of the diffraction grating (2), and at least the first order of diffraction is deflected back through the at least one lens (3) onto one of the light-sensitive elements (4.1, 4.2).
Device for the spectrally resolved detection of optical radiation during a thermal process, comprising an evaluation device, at least one, in a predefined wavelength range light-sensitive element, a reflective diffraction grating and at least one lens for collimation and/or focusing, wherein the at least one lens is arranged in front of the diffraction grating, and wherein the optical radiation is directed through the at least one lens onto the diffraction grating, is spectrally separated from the diffraction grating and is directed back through the at least one lens onto the at least one light-sensitive element,
