Abstract
Fabrication and characterization slab waveguide based polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) has been carried out. Slab waveguide fabrication done by the spin coating method. Slab waveguide fabrication process carried out by the rotational speed of 1000, 2000, and 3000 rpm respectively played for 10 seconds. Then the slab waveguides heated using a hot plate. Heating process starting from room temperature then increased 5°C to 70°C with a 5 minute warm-up time interval. From the results of characterization fabricated slab waveguides to determine the film thickness is made. Then made observations on the waveguide by passing the light beam He-Ne laser on the thin layer through a single mode optical fiber. From the results of characterization is known that the fabrication of a slab waveguide with a layer thickness of 166 μm. From this research it is known that polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) can be used as a waveguide with a spin coating method.
