  • Abstract
    We demonstrate a spectrometer-on-a-chip based on echelle diffraction grating (EDG) in silicon oxynitride (SiON) waveguides for operation in 850nm wavelength range. The chip comprises 120 output waveguides with 0.25 nm spacing and has a size of only 11mm×6mm. The measured adjacent channel crosstalk is close to 30 dB, the 3dB channel bandwidth is ≪ 0.1 nm and the channel non-uniformity is 3dB for wavelength from 838nm to 852nm.
