Abstract

Abstract

Norland Optical Adhesive(NOA), a new type of polymer material, is used to fabricate the Mach-Zehnder thermo-optic switch in this paper. The optical properties of NOA film materials are characterized. The waveguides with good profiles are fabricated by the Inductively Coupled Plasma(ICP) method. The insertion loss of a 2.2 cm-length straight waveguide is 8.3 dB at 1 550 nm. The extinction ratio of the thermo-optic switch is 11 dB and the driving power is 83 mW when the DC bias is loaded on the electrodes. The switching property of the device is tested with DC bias, and the rise time and the fall time of the switch are 1.085 ms and 489.5 s, respectively. Experimental results show that the NOA material has great potentials in fabricating thermo-optic switches and other polymer waveguide integrated devices.
