Abstract:Three-dimensional optical wiring, consisting of stacked optical waveguide films with 45 o mirrors, is a backbone for integrated optical interconnects and solar energy conversion systems. By using the self-organized lightwave network (SOLNET) technique, we observed leakage/scattering of guided light beams at 45 o mirrors of core end facets in optical waveguide films. When 405-nm write beams were introduced into the optical waveguide having a photo-refractive material layer on the back, three excess lines of SOL… Show more
