New Types of Hybrid Polymer Formulations for Micro-Optics and Packaging Using Ultra Fine Filler Materials

The availability of polymers as optical materials plays a crucial role for easy, cost-efficient, and reliable wafer-based manufacturing. In this context, UV -curable Hybrid Polymers have gained industrial importance especially in the field of micro-optical elements and waveguides in the past years [1], [2] (Fig 1).
