Abstract

The present invention discloses a space-time joint modulation and MZI optical waveguide array-based imaging spectrometer. According to the imaging spectrometer, a slitless imaging system is adopted. The imaging spectrometer comprises a preset lens and an interferometer spectrometer chip layer or a three-dimensional chip, a plurality of interferometer spectrometer chip layers being stacked to form the three-dimensional chip; each interferometer spectrometer chip layer comprises an optical waveguide structure, a spot-size converter array, an MZI array and a detector array being connected with one another sequentially so as to form the optical waveguide structure; MZIs with different interference arm differences are arranged in parallel so as to form the MZI array; and the input port of each MZI receives pixel signals in the same row or column which are parallel to a push-scanning image area. According to the imaging spectrometer of the invention, the complexity of an optical path is simplified; the weight and size of the imaging spectrometer are decreased greatly; the imaging spectrometer has high integration and high stability; and the incident light flux of the system is greatly enhanced, so that the imaging spectrometer can be miniaturized and light-weighted.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an imaging spectrometer, in particular to an imaging spectrometer based on space-time joint modulation and an MZI optical waveguide array, specifically a Fourier transform spectrometer based on space-time joint modulation and an MZI device in an integrated optical waveguide device. Background technique [0002] Optical instruments have always been an important part of space exploration and remote sensing of the Earth. Imaging spectrometers on remote sensing satellites and aircraft are important instruments for observing the atmosphere, oceans, and land. [0003] Imaging spectrometers are divided into telescope imaging systems and spectrometer systems. The relatively mature and good-performance spectroscopic spectrometers include dispersive spectrometers and Fourier transform spectrometers. They are all composed of discrete lenses, spectroscopic elements and detectors. Relatively large, high cost, and has high requiremen...
