Abstract

We present a theoretical study of guided-mode-resonance filters made of two sub-wavelength metallic gratings and a dielectric waveguide, with lateral geometries compatible with the size of infrared focal plane array pixels. Contrary to most of the studies described in the literature, we consider here a focused beam on finite-sized filters, and we investigate the optical properties of a mosaic of 30 μm-long filters. We demonstrate the spectral filtering ability and low crosstalk of such components. We also study the impact of an oblique beam onto a filtering mosaic. We finally discuss the opportunities offered by these results for a new generation of multispectral infrared cameras, and we give an example of a simple architecture.
