Polymer Waveguide (PWG)
Suitable for optical wiring in narrow space
which is difficult with optical fibers in usage of
optical communication and optical sensing
Advantage
PWG Structure/Transmission performance
- Film thickness: 100 µm
- Flexibility: R=1 mm
- Weight saving (comparison with e-wiring): 1/100
- Propagation loss: 0.05 dB/cm
- Bending loss: <0.2 dB @R=5 mm
- Crosstalk b/w channels: <-40 dB
