Abstract
We present details of the fabrication, calculations, and transmission measurements for finite two-dimensional (2D) polymer photonic crystal (PC) slab waveguides, which were fabricated from a benzocyclobutene polymer on a low refractive index substrate from Teflon. A square air hole lattice (500 nm lattice constant, 300 nm hole diameter) was realized by electron beam lithography and reactive ion etching. Polarization and wavelength dependent transmission results show TE-like and TM-like stop gaps at 1.3 μm excitation wavelengths and are in good agreement with the calculated data obtained by 2D and three-dimensional finite difference time domain methods. Transmission was suppressed by 15 dB in the center of the TE-like stop gap for a PC length of ten lattice constants.
