| Abstract(in English) | A simple low-cost method of fabricating large core polymeric optical waveguides (POWs), a Y-branch type optical waveguide fabricated by the method, and improved method of thermal resistance of POWs are presented. Polymeric optical waveguide devices connectable to plastic optical fibers (POFs) fabricated by thermal replication using thermo-plastic and thermo-curable resins were realized. Optical waveguides with large core sizes of 1000μm were fabricated, and low propagation loss of～0.2dB/cm for thermo-plastic resin waveguide at 650nm was achieved. Waveguide with high thermal resistance was realized by simultaneous curing and replication using thermo-curable multifunctional methacrylate monomers. Y-branch type polymeric optical waveguides with branching angle from 2° to 10°and branching top-part-radius of 200μm were fabricated by hot embossing. |
