Fabrication of polymer waveguides by laser ablation using a 355 nm wavelength Nd:YAG laser

The demand for optical waveguides integrated into Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) is increasing as the limitations of copper interconnects for greater than 10 Gb/s data rates are being reached. Optical polymer materials offer a good solution due to their relatively low cost and compatibility with trad...
