    Area of Science:

    • Photonics and Optical Engineering
    • Nanotechnology
    • Spectroscopy

    Background:

    • Chip-scale spectrometers are crucial for miniaturizing spectroscopy for applications like wearable health monitoring and the Internet of Things (IoT).
    • Current metasurface-based spectrometers face a trade-off: higher spectral resolution requires denser pixels, larger areas, tighter tolerances, and increased cost.
    • Existing technologies often necessitate complex reconstruction algorithms and dispersive optics.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To eliminate the spectral resolution-pixel count trade-off in chip-scale spectrometers.
    • To develop a compact, high-resolution spectrometer using a single, all-dielectric, nonlocal metasurface.
    • To enable field-deployable spectroscopy with reduced complexity and cost.

    Main Methods:

    • Designed and fabricated a single, all-dielectric, nonlocal metasurface optimized for high spectral contrast.
    • Engineered unit cell thickness and duty cycle to suppress background transmission and host high-Q quasi-guided modes (QGMs).
    • Utilized angular dispersion of QGMs to map the full spectrum onto a single-pixel transmission trace, eliminating the need for pixel arrays.

    Main Results:

    • Demonstrated high-resolution spectroscopy across the 1458-1525 nm window using a 1 mm² device.
    • Achieved spectral resolution determined by QGM quality factors and angular step size.
    • The device requires no calibration beyond angle encoding and minimal post-processing (peak finding).

    Conclusions:

    • The developed metasurface approach successfully eliminates the spectral resolution-pixel count trade-off in chip-scale spectrometers.
    • This foundry-compatible technology offers a low-cost, high-precision pathway to compact, field-deployable spectroscopic devices.
    • The single-pixel, angle-encoded spectroscopy method simplifies spectrometer design and operation.
