Demonstration of a robust and portable polymer nano-wire based test bench towards sensing applications

Here we propose the fabrication of integrated Ormocomp polymer optical waveguide. The characterization bench is developed using a simple PDMS lens for light coupling and low cost optical microscope for capturing the decoupled light from the waveguide. And the mechanical alignment is provided with a 3D design prototype. The observed results were compared with the traditional characterization bench and observed the magnification up to 10 ×.
