摘要：

A newly-designed plastic alignment platform formed by a precise injection molding technique is proposed for connecting a polymer waveguide film to optical fibers. This platform consists of a pair of parallel arrayed V-grooves separated by a Hat cavity for the polymer waveguide Him. The core positions of the film are strictly determined by using polymer processing techniques including microlithography. A precisely aligned connection is then realized simply by placing the polymer waveguide in the mount cavity of the component. This provides an average connection loss of 0.2 dB/port.
