Abstract

This work presents the analysis of $1\times2$ polymer waveguide thermo-optic switch using asymmetric Y-splitter at the wavelength of 1300nm. Because of the high thermo-optic coefficient of polymeric materials the design of efficient switches were feasible. For the numerical simulation of these switches the finite difference beam propagation method has been employed. Design rules for a $1\times2$ polymeric switch have been defined by using the numerical techniques.
