Abstract
An optical receiver for a meteorological lidar capable of accurate measurement of scattered light generated by emitting a laser beam of the UVC range (wavelength of 200 to 280 nm) into the air, without using a diffraction grating, is provided. The optical receiver for a meteorological lidar that emits a laser beam of a specific wavelength in the UVC range into the air and measures scattered light generated by the laser beam includes a reflector that reflects incident light to a predetermined direction, and a spectrometer that isolates a specific wavelength from incident light from the reflector, wherein the spectrometer includes interference filters.
