Electro-optic Polymer Waveguldes

Considerable progress has been made in the fabrication of optical waveguides in poled polymer materials. Reacting the nonlinear constituents into the polymer and using a corona poling technique produces an electro-optic material suitable for waveguide fabrication in many geometries. We report on the...

Summary:Considerable progress has been made in the fabrication of optical waveguides in poled polymer materials. Reacting the nonlinear constituents into the polymer and using a corona poling technique produces an electro-optic material suitable for waveguide fabrication in many geometries. We report on the characterization and electro-optic measurements in these materials.
