A PSQ-L Polymer Microring Resonator Fabricated by a Simple UV-Based Soft-Lithography Process

Photonic integrated circuits based on polymer waveguides have great potential as low-cost optical devices. A novel inorganic-organic hybrid polymer polysiloxane-liquid (PSQ-L) is introduced for defining the waveguides and for use as both core and cladding layer for the waveguides. The waveguide circ...

description Photonic integrated circuits based on polymer waveguides have great potential as low-cost optical devices. A novel inorganic-organic hybrid polymer polysiloxane-liquid (PSQ-L) is introduced for defining the waveguides and for use as both core and cladding layer for the waveguides. The waveguide circuits are replicated by a simple ultraviolet-based soft lithography method consisting of two steps. All-polymer microring resonators are fabricated by this approach and characterized. About 6-dB extinction ratio at the through port and 18-dB extinction ratio at the drop port is demonstrated. A Q-factor of 4.2 times 10 4 is obtained. Extracted from the measured spectrum, the scattering loss of the ring waveguides is estimated to be about 1.6 dB/cm. This easy fabrication technique can be easily extended to fabricate other devices.
