Optical-electrical composite flexible circuit substrate including optical circuit and electrical circuit

摘要

An optical-electrical composite flexible circuit substrate having sufficiently high bending resistance is provided. An optical-electrical composite flexible circuit substrate includes: an optical circuit that includes a core portion and a cladding layer that covers the core portion; and an electrical circuit, with the optical circuit and the electrical circuit being disposed at a position that includes a neutral surface when the optical-electrical composite flexible circuit substrate is bent, or at a position near the neutral surface. Alternatively, the optical-electrical composite flexible circuit substrate may include an optical circuit that includes a core portion and a cladding layer that covers the core portion; and a substrate that includes an electrical circuit, with the substrate and the optical circuit being laminated so that the electrical circuit is disposed on a side closer to the optical circuit.
