Simple route to ridge optical waveguide fabricated via controlled evaporative self-assembly

Abstract

A simple route to intriguing patterns for optical waveguides was demonstrated by controlled evaporative self-assembly (CESA) of confined microfluid. Silica ridge waveguides were fabricated by applying wet and dry etching based on stripe patterns formed by CESA. The optical mode of the resulting waveguides was confirmed by exposing them to the 1064 nm transmission light.
