Board-Level Single-mode Polymer Optical Waveguides
In optical interconnects, there is an increasing discrepancy between current proposals for optical backplanes, which strongly focus on multimodal waveguides, and those for very high capacity transmitter and receiver modules being realized in silicon photonics, which focus on single mode transmission systems. In this paper we present a boardlevel single mode polymer optical waveguide technology ...
متن کاملSiloxane-based polymer epoxies for optical waveguides
We introduce a new class of siloxane-based epoxy polymers for thin film optical waveguide applications. The thickness of spun-on films can be controlled by varying either spin speed or viscosity using solvents. Cured films exhibit excellent adhesion to silicon oxide and Al and excellent thermal and chemical stability. Waveguides of ~ 2 micron thickness on silicon oxide exhibit <0.2 dB/cm loss a...
متن کاملSemiconducting polymer waveguides for end-fired ultra-fast optical amplifiers.
A method to fabricate conjugated polymer waveguides with well defined edge facets is demonstrated. The utility of the approach is explored for application as end-fired ultrafast optical amplifiers based on poly(9,9'-dioctylfluorene-co-benzothiadiazole). An internal gain of 19 dB was achieved on a 760 microm long waveguide at 565 nm wavelength. This fabrication procedure may be applied to a wide...
متن کاملAbsorption and scattering in low-loss polymer optical waveguides
The absolute absorption spectra of low-loss optical waveguides, together with their intrinsic and extrinsic scatterings, were measured in the near infrared. Photothermal deflection spectroscopy was used to measure the full absorption spectra of a series of fluorinated cross-linked polymers. Assignment of —CH3, —CH2—, and —OH overtones as well as of combinations of overtones were made by use of ...
متن کاملBioabsorbable polymer optical waveguides for deep-tissue photomedicine.
Advances in photonics have stimulated significant progress in medicine, with many techniques now in routine clinical use. However, the finite depth of light penetration in tissue is a serious constraint to clinical utility. Here we show implantable light-delivery devices made of bio-derived or biocompatible, and biodegradable polymers. In contrast to conventional optical fibres, which must be r...
