Fourier Transform Microspectrometer with Interleaved Arrayed Waveguide Gratings
Abstract
We propose a new type of arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) device that operates as a Fourier transform (FT) spectrometer without the need of scanning elements. The large input aperture size typical of a FT spectrometer eliminates the requirement for a narrow single mode input waveguide while still achieving a high spectral resolution. By replacing a single mode input waveguide by a wide ridge or slab waveguide, the light gathering capability …
