Abstract
A method of fabricating a polymer waveguide (PWG) is presented. The method includes preparing a polymer waveguide (PWG) sheet having a surface with partially exposed cores and partially exposed cladding, the cladding covering the cores and preparing a first dicing tape, the first dicing tape being an ultraviolet (UV) cut type dicing tape defining separation lines on a back side thereof. The method further includes placing the partially exposed cores of the PWG sheet on the first dicing tape to prevent the surface of the PWG sheet from atmospheric contaminations and placing a tape side of the first dicing tape attached to the PWG sheet on a second dicing tape.
