Resumen

A microring resonator with the multimode interference coupler is fabricated on the polymer platform by using UV-based soft nanoimprint technique. A unique class of fluorinated polymer, perfluoropolyether (PFPE), is employed for the fabrication of the flexible soft mold. By optimizing the proportion between Ormocore and the thinner maT, the microring resonator is fabricated almost without residual layer. The fabricated device with a Q-factor up to 2.3 × 104 is demonstrated for very-near-infrared wavelengths, which shows high potential for sensing applications.
