Spectrometer employing pump light source and fluorescent radiation

A spectrometer device for obtaining spectroscopic information on at least one object, the spectrometer device comprising:

• i. at least one light source for generating illumination light for illuminating the object, the light source comprising at least one light-emitting diode and at least one luminescent material for light-conversion of primary light generated by the light-emitting diode into secondary light, wherein the illumination light at least partially comprises the primary light and the secondary light;
• ii. at least one broadband detector for detecting detection light from the object in a spectral range at least partially comprising the spectral ranges of the primary light and the secondary light, wherein the broadband detector is configured for generating at least one primary detector signal upon detecting the detection light in the spectral range of the primary light, wherein the broadband detector is further configured for generating at least one secondary detector signal upon detecting the detection light in the spectral range of the secondary light;
• and
• iii. at least one evaluation unit for evaluating at least one of the primary detector signal and the secondary detector signal generated by the broadband detector and for determining the spectroscopic information on the object from at least one of the primary detector signal and the secondary detector signal, wherein the evaluation unit is configured for evaluating
• the primary detector signal generated by the broadband detector and for deriving a first application spectroscopic information on the object from the primary detector signal;
• the secondary detector signal generated by the broadband detector and for deriving a second application spectroscopic information on the object from the secondary detector signal.
