A method is proposed for producing passive and/or active optical polymer components having integrated fibre-chip coupling by means of casting technology. For this purpose, the master structure is produced in common on a silicon substrate both for accommodating an optical waveguide and a fibre-guiding...http://www.google.com.au/patents/US5526454?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatent US5526454 - Method for producing optical polymer components having integrated fibre-chip coupling by means of casting technology
