Vacuum-tuned graded-index polymer waveguides on silicon substrates.
A new method for producing graded-index (GRIN) profiles on type A photolime gel-based polymer waveguides with vacuum drying is demonstrated. Vacuum drying allows optical waveguides to be built on substrates with a higher index of refraction without intermediate lower-index cladding layers while keeping the concentration of various dopants unperturbed. The waveguide-loss and GRIN profiles were c...
متن کاملBeam propagation in parabolically tapered graded-index waveguides.
To a good approximation, the electromagnetic-propagation characteristics of graded-index waveguides can be written in terms of polynomial-Gaussian modes. For uniform quadratic-index waveguides the behavior of these modes is well known. However, there are sometimes practical reasons for using tapered waveguides, but detailed propagation solutions are known for only a few specific taper functions...
متن کاملA New Computational Method for Quasi-TE Mode Effective Index in Rib Waveguides
ABSTRACT In this paper, we propose a new numerical method for solving a rib waveguide TE-mode problem. In the proposed method, the cross-section of the waveguide is divided into several regions and the refractive index profile and field distribution in each region are expanded into Fourier cosine series, and then are substituted in the wave equation. A second-order differential matrix equation ...
متن کاملLow-loss high-index-contrast planar waveguides with graded-index cladding layers.
We experimentally demonstrate, for the first time, propagation loss reduction via graded-index (GRIN) cladding layers in high-index-contrast (HIC) glass waveguides. We show that scattering loss arising from sidewall roughness can be significantly reduced without compromising the high-index-contrast condition, by inserting thin GRIN cladding layers with refractive indices intermediate between th...
