Phase-modulated axilenses as ultra-compact spectroscopic tools
英文摘要：
We design and characterize phase-modulated, ultra-compact, silicon-based axilens devices that combine efficient point focusing and grating selectivity within scalable 4-level phase mask configurations. The proposed designs are polarization insensitive and maintain a large focusing efficiency over a broad spectral band. Specifically, we select and systematically characterize structures designed for visible and near-infrared (NIR) operation in the $750nm-950nm$ wavelength range. These devices are ideally suited for monolithic integration atop the substrate layers of focal plane arrays (FPAs) for use in multi-band photo-detection and imaging. We demonstrate linear control of multi-wavelength focusing on a single achromatic plane and provide an application consisting of a proof-of-concept ultra-compact single-lens spectrometer with only 300 nm thickness and 70$μm$ diameter, achieving a minimum distinguishable wavelength $Δλ=40nm$ at $λ_0=850nm$. The proposed devices add fundamental spectroscopic capabilities to compact imaging devices for a number of applications ranging from spectral sorting to visible and NIR multispectral imaging and detection.
