Integrated narrow bandpass filters array for miniature spectrometer
C ompact, lightweight, and rigid miniature spectrometers without moving parts are needed for a wide variety of applications,
including space applications, where every inch of payload counts. Miniaturization increases the portability and paves
the way for making in situ spectral measurements for daily life of food-safety and health, etc. It also eases the integration of
microspectrometers and miniature spectrometers into other technologies, such as microelectronics, and helps to realize lab-
on-a-chip devices. It attracts many research interests in recent years. Many novel wavelength division approaches have been
proposed for miniature spectrometers, such as colloidal quantum dot spectrometer and disordered photonic chip. The optical
filter array is one of the most important components in wavelength-division multiplexing, multispectral devices, and parallel
array optics, which are widely used in communication and electrooptical systems. We proposed and realized the concept
of integrated narrow bandpass filter array from 2004, which can totally match with detectors array with very high spectral
resolution and high structure & spectrum flexibility, and resulting in simple structure and small volume with high reliability.
We developed the combinatorial etching technique and combinatorial deposition technique for fabrication of such devices.
We also demonstrated a concept of a high-resolution miniature spectrometer using an integrated filter array. Such a device has
already been successfully used in a multi-spectral luminescence imaging for plant growth research setup of Shijian ten satellites
launched in 2016.
