Abstract
The invention aims to integrate a two-wave stationary interferometer on a photodetector during fabrication in order to constitute a miniature stationary Fourier transform spectrometer. The interferometer essentially comprises a plate having a first plane face coinciding with an image plane on semiconductor photosensitive elements and a second face that is not parallel to the first face. The second face reflects a wave that has a phase difference relative to the incident wave interfering with it that is a function of the local thickness of the plate.
