Design for polymer optical waveguides realizing efficient light coupling via 45-degree mirrors

Fabrication of Y-Branched GI Core Polymer Waveguide and its Application to CWDM MUX Device for Multimode Fiber

“…In order to address the aforementioned issues, we have demonstrated that GI core waveguides exhibit low propagation and coupling losses due to the strong light confinement in the GI core [5,6]. Accordingly, for low loss and high-bandwidth CWDM-MMF links, we have proposed Y-branched GI core polymer optical waveguide couplers [7][8][9][10].…”
