摘要
We report on a novel solid state wavelength meter in the near infrared. The device is an array of six photodetectors based on polycrystalline germanium film evaporated on a silicon substrate and each element is a wavelength sensitive detector. We describe the design, the fabrication and the characterization of such device and we demonstrate its capability in the measurement of the wavelength of quasi-monochromatic light beams.
