Abstract

A polymer focusing waveguide grating coupler(FGC) was implemented by UV nanoimprinting method. The size of this focusing grating is 1 mm X 1 mm and the total device size is 8 mm X 2 mm. We use the UV sensible polymer which is coated by spin coating method. After nanoimprinting the device, the residual thickness on the slab waveguide is about 10 nm ~ 30 nm. The spot size of this polymer FGC is 347 nm for blue laser and the coupling efficiency is 28.2%.
