Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, in the method using the above-mentioned solution, it is not easy to control the film thickness, especially after the step of removing part of the applied solution, it is not easy to control the inclination of the core for leveling.
[0008] In addition, although the technology disclosed in Patent Document 1 makes the upper cladding layer of the bent portion thinner without changing the core size and improves the bending resistance durability of the optical waveguide, it is not necessarily easy to control a part of the upper cladding layer. Therefore, it is desired to find a method to easily improve the bending durability

Embodiment 2

[0217] A flexible optical waveguide and a photoelectric composite circuit board were produced in the same manner as in Example 1, except that a flat-plate vacuum pressure laminator was not used for smoothing in Example 1. exist Figure 15 In , the film thickness measurement results of the produced flexible optical waveguide are shown. In the repeated sliding test of the photoelectric composite wiring board, the optical waveguide did not break even after passing through 100,000 times, showing good bending durability (sliding durability). On the other hand, the insertion loss was 2.2 dB, and a loss increase of 1.2 dB was observed compared with the case of smoothing, and it was confirmed that smoothing is preferable for applications requiring high optical characteristics. (Refer to Table 1).

Abstract

(1) Disclosed is a method for producing a flexible optical waveguide, which comprises: a step of forming a first cladding layer; a step of forming a first core layer by arranging a core layer-forming resin film on at least one end portion of the first cladding layer; a step of forming a second core layer by arranging a core layer-forming resin film on the entire surface of the first core layer and the entire surface of the first cladding layer; a step of forming a core pattern by patterning the first and second core layers; and a step of embedding the core pattern by forming a second cladding layer on the core pattern and the first cladding layer. (2) Disclosed is a flexible optical waveguide comprising a lower cladding layer, a core part and an upper cladding layer, wherein the width of the upper cladding layer is smaller than the width of the lower cladding layer at least in the bending portion, while being equal to or smaller than the width of the lower cladding layer in the end portions, and the width of the lower cladding layer in the bending portion is equal to or smaller than the width thereof in the end portions. Also disclosed is a method for producing the flexible optical waveguide. The flexible optical waveguide has excellent bending durability and little light loss.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a flexible optical waveguide excellent in bending durability and optical transmission characteristics, a manufacturing method thereof, and an optoelectronic composite wiring board using the flexible optical waveguide. Background technique [0002] In recent years, in the high-speed and high-density signal transmission between electronic components and between circuit boards, the mutual interference and attenuation of signals have become obstacles in the conventional transmission through electric wiring, and high-speed and high-density signal transmission has begun to be seen. the restriction of transformation. In order to overcome this limitation, a technique of optically connecting electronic components and circuit boards, that is, a so-called optical interconnection, has been studied. As an optical transmission path, polymer optical waveguides have attracted attention from the viewpoints of ease of processing, low co...
