    We developed a novel optical bandpass filter array using dielectric metasurfaces and distributed Bragg reflectors. This technology enables on-chip spectrometers with spatially tunable wavelengths and high quality factors.

    Area of Science:

    • Photonics and Optical Engineering
    • Nanotechnology
    • Materials Science

    Background:

    • Optical filters are crucial components in various photonic systems.
    • Existing filter technologies face limitations in tunability and integration.
    • Metasurfaces offer novel ways to control light at the nanoscale.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose and demonstrate a planar array of optical bandpass filters.
    • To achieve spatially varying and independently controlled center wavelengths.
    • To enable on-chip high-resolution spectrometers.

    Main Methods:

    • Fabrication of a planar array using low-loss dielectric metasurface layers.
    • Integration of metasurfaces between two distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) to form a Fabry-Pérot resonator.

  • Control of filter center wavelength by altering the in-plane geometry of the metasurface.

    • Main Results:

    • Demonstrated an array of bandpass filters with spatially varying center wavelengths.
    • Achieved a wide operational wavelength range of 250nm around 1550nm (Δλ/λ = 16%).
    • Measured quality factors exceeding 700 for the filters.

    Conclusions:

    • The demonstrated metasurface-based filter array offers independent wavelength control.
    • This technology is suitable for direct integration with photodetector arrays.
    • Enables the development of compact, on-chip high-resolution spectrometers.
