SmartPrint Polymer Material and Design for the Connection of Separate Optical Chips
This technology is a further development of interconnect polymer waveguides for photonics packaging and integration. Here, a flexible optical substrate is attached and aligned to individual photonic chip components to form an optical waveguide. The waveguide comprises a refractive index contrast (RIC) polymer directly patterned using a photolithography...

Photoresponsive Polymer Films for Photo-Patterned Waveguides
University of Arizona researchers have developed a new class of high refractive index polymers that can be deposited as thin films and directly photo-patterned into useful device architectures. The resulting cured (e.g. photo-exposed) regions have a reduced refractive index, which is 0.01-0.05 lower than the unexposed regions and, hence, have tremendous...
