Abstract

The realization and characterization of the leaky loop integrated Fourier transform spectrometer (LLIFTS) in integrated optics are described. The component is compact, costless with no moveable parts. The principle lies on a two-beam interferometer in planar design using a leaky loop waveguide structure. The radiated part leaking from the loop induces an interference pattern at the end of the component. The structure has the advantage of controlling the shape of the interference pattern. Ion exchange technology used here requires only a single lithography step. Measurements have been made in the near infrared domain with wavelength resolution of 11 nm.
