ABSTRACTThis work deals with SU-8 waveguides and waveguide structures fabricated on an oxidized silicon substrate using ‘Focused ion beam (FIB) lithography’. From our experimentation it seems that FIB method is practically not suitable for fabricating long SU-8 waveguide structures, rather it is more suitable for nanoscale modification of already fabricated waveguides, such as, to fabricate photonic crystal structures.
