Abstract
Multimode polymer waveguides were created using epoxy resin materials. The fabrication process used non-contact photolithography, which is a simple and cost-effective method. During the experiments, a reliable and efficient developer was obtained. The samples were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy and the results showed that the ridge waveguides had a smooth surface and vertical sidewalls. The cross-section size was approximately 50 × 55 μm2. The waveguides had a transmission loss was about 0.08 dB/cm at a wavelength of 850 nm, which was measured using the cut-back method. Additionally, the waveguides were found to be stable in thermal and damp heat conditions.
