Abstract

A five-channel wavelength-division demultiplexer (WDDM) is demonstrated that is fabricated in polymer microstructure waveguides and operates over a 100-nm bandwidth centered at 750 nm in the near-IR. The device has a maximum diffraction efficiency of about 50 percent at 730 nm, a spectral bandwidth of about 15 nm, and effectively utilizes the large optical transparency of the photolime gelatin polymer material at laser diode wavelengths.
