    Abstract: The present invention relates to an integrated photonic device (1) comprising an image detector (2) that comprises an array of pixels. The device further comprises an integrated waveguide (5) and a light coupler (3) comprising a light receiving part (7) optically coupled to the integrated waveguide (5) for receiving a light signal. The light coupler (3) is adapted for coupling a same predetermined spectral band of the light signal to each of a plurality of pixels of the image detector (2).

    Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to a light coupler, a photonic integrated circuit, and a method for manufacturing a light coupler. The light coupler is for optically coupling to an integrated waveguide and for out-coupling a light signal propagating in the integrated waveguide into free space. The light coupler includes a plurality of microstructures. The plurality of microstructures is adapted in shape and position to compensate decay of the light signal when propagating in the light coupler. The plurality of microstructures is also adapted in shape and position to provide a power distribution of the light signal when coupled into free space such that the power distribution corresponds to a predetermined target power distribution. Each of the microstructures forms an optical scattering center. The microstructures are positioned on the light coupler in accordance with a non-uniform number density distribution.
