Refractive index tuning and birefringence effect in crosslinked siloxane-acrylate copolymers for optical waveguide applications

Tunability of refractive index of polymeric waveguide material could be made by controlling free volume as well as polarizability of constituent materials. Two acrylate-co-polysiloxane series of different crosslinking network were synthesised by utilizing different crosslinker and monomer feeding ra...
