Large-Area MEMS-Based Distributed Bragg Reflectors for Short-Wave and Mid-Wave Infrared Hyperspectral Imaging Applications

---

Abstract—We present the design, fabrication, and optical characterization of silicon-air-silicon-based distributed Bragg reflectors, or quarter wavelength mirrors, in sizes ranging from 200 μm × 200 μm to 5 mm × 5 mm. Such mirrors can be used in conjunction with either single-element photodetectors
or large-area focal plane arrays to realize tunable multispectral sensors or adaptive focal plane arrays from the short-wave infrared wavelength ranges (1500–3000 nm) to mid-wave infrared wavelength (3000–6000 nm) ranges. Surface optical profile measurements indicate a flatness of the order of 20–30 nm in the fabricated structures across several millimetres. Single point spectral measurements on devices show excellent agreement with simulated optical models. The fabricated distributed Bragg reflectors show ∼94% reflectivity, which is in close agreement with theoretical reflectivity. The demonstrated high reflectivity across a wide wavelength range renders them suitable as broadband
reflectors. Finally, we present optical transmittance modeling results for Fabry–Pérot filters based on these distributed Bragg reflectors.
