چکیده

Spatial heterodyne spectrometers (SHS) can achieve high resolution with excellent optical throughput. We demonstrate a planar waveguide SHS incorporating 64 asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometers and show measurements that verify 1 GHz resolution across a 64 GHz measurement range.

Planar Waveguide Devices for Communication and Sensing Applications

Silicon photonics is widely regarded as a promising technology to meet the requirements of rapid bandwidth growth and energy-efficient on-chip communication while reducing cost per bit. In all potential application areas it is widely recognized that use of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) techniques will be critical in achieving the required high levels of data transmission. Si photonics ...

A Large Throughput High

We have designed and constructed a Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) for the study of submillimeter-wave mixers and optical components. The FTS has a large aperture (up to 25.4 cm) and small focal ratio (as fast as f/2.5) to achieve a large throughput. It operates in the 100-3750 GHz (3.3-125 cm ?1) frequency range with a resolution of up to 75 MHz (0.0025 cm ?1). Here we discuss the design ...

A Miniature Spatial Heterodyne Uv Raman Spectrometer for Planetary Exploration: Proof of Principle for Smallsat Standoff Operations Using a Cell-phone

We are developing a new type of miniature Fourier transform (FT) Raman spectrometer; the spatial heterodyne Raman spectrometer (SHRS), which provides high spectral resolution in a very small system with high light throughput. The resolution of the SHRS is not dependent on a slit, so miniature systems, <1 cm footprint, can be made with high spectral resolution. The ability to miniaturize the SHR...

A 850 GHz Waveguide Receiver Employing a Niobium SIS Junction Fabricated on a 1μm Si3N4 Membrane

We report on a 850 GHz SIS heterodyne receiver employing a RF tuned niobium tunnel junction with a current density of 14kA/cm2, fabricated on a 1 μm Si3N4 supporting membrane. Since the mixer is designed to be operated well above the superconducting gap frequency of niobium (2 /h ≈ 690 GHz), special care has been taken to minimize niobium transmission line losses. Both Fourier Transform Spectro...
