Abstract

A wavelength demultiplexing device configured so as to spatially distributing the spectral contributions of an incident light beam, when in use, and which includes a linear waveguide and a planar waveguide, formed in a coplanar way and adapted to be optically coupled with one another along a coupling line, by evanescent coupling. Such a device may further include diffraction gratings located in the planar waveguide, to extract light out of the latter.
