Polymer optical waveguide and process for producing the same

摘要

A process for producing at least one polymer optical waveguide wherein each of at least one polymer optical waveguide has at least one start point and at least one end point uniformly aligned along a same single straight line. The process includes preparing a mold having at least one concave portion for forming at least one core; bringing a cladding substrate into close contact with the mold disposing the at least one concave portion towards the cladding substrate; filling the at least one concave portion of the mold with a core-forming curable resin; curing the core-forming curable resin in the at least one concave portion to form at least one core; and cutting a cladding substrate possessing at least one core part and a cladding layer thereon along the same single straight line.
