Abstract :
We report enhanced graded-index multimode polymer waveguides with >70GHz×m for MMF launch and >200GHz×m for restricted launch, indicating the capability of on-board waveguide transmission of >100 Gb/s. Simulations using the measured refractive index profile agree well with the experiments.
