We present a high-efficiency, high resolution on-chip filterbank spectrometer designed for line intensity mapping and broadband wave-like dark matter searches. This spectrometer maximizes sensitivity to the faint, aggregate cosmic signal for line intensity mapping while providing redshift precision necessary to resolve the clustering of large-scale structure. For broadband dark matter searches, it partitions broadband signals into narrow frequency bins that directly correspond to dark matter masses, allowing signal frequency to be mapped with high precision to the particle's mass. Existing superconducting filterbank architectures used by the mm-wave community are limited by a 50\% inherent efficiency limit and are highly sensitive to thin-film dielectric loss. The design presented in this paper addresses these bottlenecks by eliminating the termination resistor and employing a niobium-on-silicon coplanar waveguide resonant structures for the filterbanks. Sonnet electromagnetic simulations of a 10-channel device around 90 GHz demonstrates >74\% per channel efficiency and a resolving power of $R=1211\pm105$. Sensitivity analyses confirm that the design is robust against typical fabrication uncertainties with the exception of dielectric thickness, providing a scalable technology solution for the next generation of millimeter-wave spectroscopic experiments.
