Ultra low loss polymer waveguides

Perfluoropolymer waveguide structures exhibiting polarization independent ultra low loss of <0.05 dB/cm at 1310 nm and <0.07 dB/cm at 1550 nm have been fabricated for the first time. These new low loss structures indicate relatively high power handling reliability.
