Abstract

We report on the recent development and initial test results of two electro-optic polymer based integrated optic devices for optical interconnection applications. The first is an optical railtap for the distribution of many different optical signals from a single CW laser diode, and the second is a traveling wave Mach-Zehnder integrated optic modulator, which was modulated at frequencies up to 8 GHz. Electro-optic polymer materials supplied by Akzo Research, By, were used in both devices.
