Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Optics
  • Photonics

Background:

  • Direct laser writing (DLW) enables 3D polymer prototyping with sub-diffraction limit resolution.
  • Polymers are attractive for nonlinear photonic devices due to mechanical and optical properties.
  • Material absorption and refractive index dispersion are critical for all-optical broadband applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the suitability of common DLW resins for all-optical broadband applications.
  • To characterize the linear and nonlinear optical properties of selected acrylate-based resins and Nanoscribe IP materials.

Main Methods:

  • Measurement of linear and nonlinear refractive and absorptive spectra.
  • Analysis of group velocity dispersion (GVD) and figures of merit (FOM).

Main Results:

  • Identified resins with nonlinear refractive indices significantly higher (up to four times) than fused silica.
  • Quantified GVD and FOM to evaluate material performance for broadband applications.
  • Characterized spectral properties relevant to all-optical device performance.

Conclusions:

  • Certain DLW resins show high potential for nonlinear photonic and all-optical broadband applications.
  • Material selection requires balancing nonlinear properties with absorptive characteristics.
  • Further research can optimize polymer compositions for advanced photonic devices.
