📄 Abstract（原文）
Spaceborne spectrometers are key optical payloads for global and regional greenhouse gas (GHGs) monitoring. With the increasing demands for high-precision and high-efficiency monitoring, spectrometers are required to provide a wide swath, high spatial resolution, and high spectral resolution. However, existing spaceborne grating spectrometers still face a trade-off between swath width and spatial resolution. To address this issue, this paper presents the optical design and fabrication of an immersed-grating spectrometer for GHG monitoring. The proposed spectrometer achieves a swath width of 100 km and a spatial resolution of 3 km × 3 km while providing high spectral resolution. It operates in four channels centered at 0.76, 1.61, 2.06, and 2.30 μm, covering the O2-A band and the main absorption bands of CO2 and CH4, with corresponding spectral resolutions of 0.04, 0.07, 0.09, and 0.10 nm, respectively. The four channels share a common slit, which reduces system volume and inter-channel spatial registration errors. Immersed gratings are used as the core dispersive elements, enabling high spectral resolution in a compact optical configuration. To correct the smile and anamorphic beam compression induced by high-angular-dispersion immersed gratings, a prism-based simultaneous correction method is proposed. Based on this method, the initial parameters of the dispersion module are determined, and the optical design of the spectrometer is completed. Large-sized immersed gratings with high groove density are precisely fabricated using holographic lithography and ion-beam etching, after which the spectrometer is aligned and tested. The test MTF at the Nyquist frequency of the spatial dimension exceeds 0.72, indicating good imaging quality. The test spectral resolution of the four channels is all better than the design value, and the maximum smile and trapezoidal distortion are both within one pixel. This spectrometer provides an effective technical solution for achieving wide-swath, high-spatial-resolution, and high-spectral-resolution GHG monitoring under constraints imposed by detector size, signal-to-noise ratio, and payload size and mass.
