Bloch Surface Wave Photonic Device Fabricated by Femtosecond Laser Polymerisation Technique

We applied femtosecond laser polymerisation technique to fabricate a novel Bloch surface wave integrated photonic device with a compact coupling scheme. The device consisted of a waveguide, coupling and decoupling gratings and focusing and defocusing triangles. We manufactured an array of devices wi...
