  • Abstract
    Singlemode polymer waveguides with low transmission loss at 1300 nm are fabricated by using injection moulding as low cost mass replication technology for the fabrication of polymer waveguide substrates. The waveguide pattern is incorporated in the substrates in the form of grooves which are filled by fully deuterated EGDMA. Buried singlemode waveguides have been realised with a transmission loss as low as 0.3 dB/cm at 1300 nm.
