    摘要: The present invention discloses a polymer optical waveguide and a method of fabricating the same. The polymer optical waveguide comprises a core formed of polymer containing fluoride (F) of a 12-37 wt % on the basis of total weight of the polymer, and having repeating units with at least two —C(═O)—N—C(═O) functional groups or at least four —N—C(═O)— functional groups; and a cladding in contact with the core and formed of polymer having a refractive index lower than the polymer for forming the core. If a core layer is etched according to the ICP etching method, the etch rate becomes at least three times faster than that of the conventional RIE etching method. Also, etching characteristics including uniformity of an etched plane and vertical profile are improved, thereby reducing damage to an optical waveguide. Thus, the light scattering loss of the optical waveguide can be minimized. Also, the method for fabricating of a polymer optical waveguide according to the present invention is useful for mass production of polymer optical waveguides.

    摘要: The present invention provides an optical polyimide precursor for use in making a polyimide. The precursor is defined by the following formula: wherein X is Cl, Br, oxo-halide, or fully halogenated alkyl, and A is a divalent aromatic or halogenated aromatic moiety. The present invention provides a method of preparing a diamine compound for use as an optical polyimide precursor. The method includes the steps of dissolving 2-chloro-5-nitrobenzotrifluoride and a diol in N,N-dimethylacetamide to form a solution, adding potassium carbonate, tert-butylammonium chloride and copper powder to said solution and heating the resulting mixture, removing the copper, precipitating and recrystallizing a dinitro-compound resulting from heating the mixture, and dissolving the dinitro-compound and reducing the dinitro-compound to yield a diamine compound.

    摘要: A thermo-optic switch using a small drive power while exhibiting a reduction in the coupling loss caused by the coupling to optical fibers and a switch speed of several hundred microseconds or less. A method for manufacturing the thermo-optic switch and a method for changing an optical line switching using the thermo-optic switch are also disclosed. The thermo-optic switch includes a substrate having etched portions at regions respectively corresponding to input and output terminals of the thermo-optic switch, a lower clad layer formed over the substrate, the lower clad layer having an input taper formed at the region corresponding to the input terminal and adapted to convert a circular mode, input from an optical fiber connected to the input terminal, into an oval mode having a rib shape, and an output taper formed at the region corresponding to the output terminal and adapted to convert the oval mode into a circular mode allowed to be input to an optical fiber connected to the output terminal, a core layer formed over the lower clad layer and provided with branched waveguides having a rib structure, the branched waveguides selectively receiving the oval mode from the input taper and outputting the received oval mode to the output taper, an upper clad layer formed over the core layer, and switching electrodes formed on the upper clad layer and selectively activated to apply heat to an associated one of the branched waveguides in such a fashion that an effective refractive index difference occurs between the branched waveguides, thereby causing the branched waveguides to selectively receive the oval mode from the input taper.
