| Abstract | This paper reports planar waveguide fabrication using a novel fluorinated aromatic polyether bearing cross-linkable pentafluorostyene groups. This polymer exhibits high thermal stability and low optical loss, and the crosslinker used allows thermal processing at low temperatures (<200°C). The influences of the fabrication process and the substrate choices on the refractive index and birefringence of polymer layers have been investigated. Polymer ridge waveguide structures have been fabricated and characeterized, and device optimization through molecular design, fabrication process and substrate choice is discussed. |
