Abstract :
This paper will report the development highly moisture durable optical adhesives and the comparison with the currently using optical epoxy adhesive. The median time to failure (MTF) of cured adhesives deterioration was from several times to over 10 times longer MTF (over 3000 hrs) than the currently used one (ca. 300 hrs). Further, these newly developed adhesives were applied to the real optical devices.
