of a prison or convent.

2. (Optics) A system of close equidistant parallel lines or
bars, esp. lines ruled on a polished surface, used for
producing spectra by diffraction; -- called also
{diffraction grating}.

Note: Gratings have been made with over 40,000 such lines to

the best definition. They are used, e. g., to produce
monochromatic light for use in optical instruments such
as spectrophotometers.
