Abstract
A photo-patternable perfluorinated silane sol-gel material is presented that exhibits a high refractive index and propagation losses below 1 dB/cm at the telecommunication wavelengths. The sol-gels are produced with general formula [(CH),R'—Si(O)]—[Si(O)]—[R′—Si(O)]—[R″(CH)—M(O)]—[R′″(CH)—Si(O)]where O is oxygen, Si is silicon, M is a metal alkoxyde known to form bonds with organic compounds through oxygen donor ligands, and where, R″ and R′″ are photo cross-linkable groups, and where (CH)are alkyl spacers with n being an integer ≧0. The sol-gels can be fabricated to produce complex waveguide structures directly onto silica-on-silicon substrates with low bending losses.
