  1. 1. Polymer Components for Photonic Integrated Circuits

    Author : Aleksandrs Marinins; Sergei Popov; Leif Katsuo Oxenlowe; KTH; []
    Keywords : integrated photonics; polymers; optical communications; microfabrication; optical waveguides; microring resonators; silicon; Si nanocrystals; photoluminescence; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Optical polymers are a subject of research and industry implementation for many decades. Optical polymers are inexpensive, easy to process and flexible enough to meet a broad range of application-specific requirements. These advantages allow a development of cost-efficient polymer photonic integrated circuits for on-chip optical communications. READ MORE
