Abstract
The UV-laser lithographic method is used for the preparation of Polymeric integrated-optical waveguides in a planar polymer chip. The waveguide samples are irradiated by an excimer laser of wavelength 248â¯nm with different doses and with the same fluencies. The refractive index depth profile for the waveguides, in the first zone is found to have a parabolic shape and Gaussian shape in the second one that can be determined by Mach-Zehnder interferometer. Both the mode field distribution and the effective mode indices for the first zone only are determined by making use of the theoretical mode and the experimental data. It is found that the model field distribution is strongly dependent on the refractive indices for each zone.
