摘要
We present the concept and design of a novel integrated optical spectrometer able to operate over four different optical bands in the infrared that cover over 900 nm of aggregated bandwidth. The device, named integrated optical four bands spectrometer (IOFBS), consists of a single planar concave grating with 4 inputs waveguides, each corresponding to a different wavelength band, and 39 output channels that can be implemented on a silicon nitride platform. The inputs waveguides (IWGs) are optimized so that the echelle grating works in different diffraction orders to create constructive interference at the fixed output waveguides. The grating facets are engineered to maximize the diffraction efficiency of the beam launched from any of the four IWGs. The IOFBS works in the near infrared, the O-band, part of the S&E bands and the L-band. The simulated spectra feature an average insertion loss of -1.69 dB across the four bands and a crosstalk better than -32 dB with a 3-dB resolution as low as 0.37 nm and a channel spacing of similar to 2.1 nm. The entire device covers an area of 5 mm x 4 mm. The versatility of the proposed design can reduce the cost of integrated spectrometers and make on-chip spectral analysis more accessible by taking advantage of batch fabrication to build a compact device with numerous potential applications.
