Abstract :
We show the feasibility of optical interconnection waveguides formed by self-trapping effect with 0.85μm light irradiation into photopolymer. Self-written waveguides as extensions of both a single-mode fiber and a VCSEL chip were demonstrated. These technologies are useful for integration of chip-scale photonic device.
