Design and fabrication of optical straight channel waveguide / Hasnormiza Hassan

This paper reports the fabrication of optical straight channel waveguide using coating process. The first part will be fabricating a planar waveguide by coating thin film of polymer SU-8. The refractive index for SU-8 is 1.58. From here, a channel waveguide (straight and taper) was successfully desi...
