  • Abstract
    Loss measurements on ridge waveguides in LPE-grown GaInAsP at a wavelength of 1.3 mu m are presented. An attenuation of 4.5 dB/cm has been obtained for straight waveguides, and for curved waveguides an excess loss at low as 0.7 dB was found for a 20.8 degrees S-bend with a radius of 300 mu m ( approximately=1.5 dB/90 degrees ).
