Abstract

The spectrometer includes a lightguide substrate, an upper grating layer, a lower grating layer, an image sensor, and a readout circuit. The upper grating layer is disposed on the lightguide substrate and configured to receive a light. The upper grating layer includes a first grating structure, a second grating structure, and a third grating structure, and the first, second, and third grating structures have different grating periods. The lightguide substrate is configured to diffract the light when the light propagates into the lightguide substrate, such that multiple diffraction lights are formed and each of the multiple diffraction lights has different wavelengths and different optical path. The lower grating layer is disposed under the lightguide substrate and configured to emit the multiple diffraction lights. The image sensor is disposed under the lower grating layer. The readout circuit is disposed under the image sensor.
