  • Abstract
    Novel suspended SiO2 ridge optical waveguides on silicon are fabricated and characterized. The propagation loss and the bend loss measured are about 0.385dB/cm and 0.037dB/90° respectively for the fabricated 1μm-wide waveguides with a bending radius of 100μm when operating at 1550 nm.
