I've worked with spectrometers and on spectrometry design before, and that quote from the article is intelligible. It's also pretentious and poorly explained.
I've never worked with spectrometers but physics and chemistry were some of my strongest subjects, so it made some sense to me - but the sentence was definitely written with the intent to say "look peons, I know big science words you do not, and I can string them into a sentence you'll question the legibility of".
So, not bullshit?
