  • Title: Spectral domain optical coherence tomography imaging with an integrated optics spectrometer.
    Author: Nguyen VD, Akca BI, Wörhoff K, de Ridder RM, Pollnau M, van Leeuwen TG, Kalkman J.
    Journal: Opt Lett; 2011 Apr 01; 36(7):1293-5. PubMed ID: 21479062.
    Abstract:
    We designed and fabricated an arrayed-waveguide grating (AWG) in silicon oxynitride as a spectrometer for spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). The AWG has a footprint of only 3.0 cm × 2.5 cm, operates at a center wavelength of 1300 nm, and has 78 nm free spectral range. OCT measurements are performed that demonstrate imaging up to a maximum depth of 1 mm with an axial resolution of 19 μm, both in agreement with the AWG design parameters. Using the AWG spectrometer combined with a fiber-based SD-OCT system, we demonstrate cross-sectional OCT imaging of a multilayered scattering phantom.
