Low-Loss, Single-Mode, Organic Polymer Waveguides Utilizing Refractive Index Tailoring
Low-loss, single-mode optical waveguides have been fabricated from photopolymerizable acrylic monomers. The material system consists of a low-index cladding resin and a highindex core resin. The two resins are miscible so that precise control over the refractive index can be obtained. This allows the fabrication of single-mode waveguides with specific crosssectional dimensions. One advantage of...
متن کاملSingle-mode and single-polarization photonics with anchored-membrane waveguides.
An integrated photonic platform with "anchored-membrane" structures, the T-Guide, is proposed, numerically investigated, fabricated and characterized. These compact air-clad structures have high index contrast and are much more stable than prior membrane-type structures. Their semi-infinite geometry enables single-mode and single-polarization (SMSP) operation over unprecedented bandwidths. Moda...
متن کاملLow loss, high-speed single-mode half-disk resonator.
This work proposes a new type of resonator: a single-mode half-disk resonator. Half of the resonator is solid, allowing large electrical or mechanical contacts, and a single-mode operation can be retained. A systematic design method is demonstrated and analyzed. For a 3 μm radius, the simulation predicts an internal Q-factor as high as 2.4×10⁵, and a loaded Q-factor of ~9000 is measured in expe...
متن کاملFemtosecond laser written low-loss single-mode waveguides in PMMA
Ultrafast laser inscription is a standard technique to fabricate embedded waveguides in glasses or crystals. Tightly focused femtosecond laser-pulses induce an increase in refractive index inside the material via non-linear absorption. By moving the sample through the focus virtually arbitrary threedimensional paths can be created. The transfer of this technique to polymers has already delivere...
متن کاملResponsive Polymer Photonics**
This thesis discusses innovative approaches to polymer-based photonic coatings, with the present chapter presenting an overview of developments in this field. The coatings in question can change their topological properties in a reversible, dynamic way when exposed to an external stimulus. This thesis will first describe photoresponsive coatings that change their surface topography and therefor...
