Abstract :
Summary form only given. We report demonstrations of optical interconnections on foundry Si CMOS circuits using polymer optical waveguides. The polymer optical waveguides were directly fabricated on two Si CMOS circuits. The cladding/planarization layer was benzocyclobutene (BCB) and polyetherimide (ULTEM) was used as the waveguide core material.
