摘要:
An integrated parallel transmitter includes an array of light sources, a corresponding array of diffractive elements splitting off a portion of the beam to be monitored, a corresponding array of power monitors for respectively monitoring each light source, and an array of couplers that couples light into a corresponding waveguide. The coupler is preferably a phase-matched coupler. All of the passive optical elements are integrated onto a single substrate or a plurality of substrates that have been bonded together on a wafer level.

An analog controlled angle diffuser and associated methods provide a wavelength insensitive diffuser with a controlled output. The diffuser has free formed shaped analog fringes, i.e., fringes which have a continuous cross-section from their peak to their termination. Preferably, the depth of the analog fringes will be at least 2&pgr;, even more preferably at least 2O&pgr;. Advantageously, the pattern of the diffuser is computer-generated.

A spectrometer for use with a desired wavelength range includes an array of filters. Each filter outputs at least two non-contiguous wavelength peaks within the desired wavelength range. The array of filters is spectrally diverse over the desired wavelength range, and each filter in the array of filters outputs a spectrum of a first resolution. An array of detectors has a detector for receiving an output of a corresponding filter. A processor receives signals from each detector, and outputs a reconstructed spectrum having a second resolution, the second resolution being higher than any of the first resolution of each filter.

A method of fabricating a diffractive optical element includes the steps of: etching a negative of a desired multi-level diffraction pattern onto a molding surface of a quartz master element using photolithography, assembling the master element as a portion of a mold, and injecting a plastic molding composition into the mold and against the molding surface of the master element to injection mold a diffractive optical element, whereby the optical element has the desired diffraction pattern on its surface. The diffraction pattern is preferably formed on the quartz master using VLSI photolithography.
