Abstract
An Electro-optic switch based on Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-Poly(stryene sulfonate) (PEDOT-PSS) electrodes is designed and presented in the paper. An easy-to-fabricate structure of single-mode electro-optic (EO) polymeric waveguide switch based on a Nonlinear Optical (NLO) Polymer is used and analyzed. Electro-optically active waveguides are designed in a photo-definable polymer SU-8 doped with NLO chromophore tri-cyano-vinylidene-di-phenyl-aminobenzene (TCVDPA).
