Single mode optical waveguides based on photodefinable benzocyclobutene (BCB 4024-40) polymer

The fabrication and characterization process of BenzoCyclobutene (BCB 4024-40) polymer waveguides are described. The polymer film thickness for various coating speed and refractive index are measured by the method of prism coupling. A cost effective chemical etching technique is used in the waveguid...
