摘要: We present a reliable, nondestructive, and real-time technique for characterization of propagation properties planar optical waveguides based on accurately imaging the scattered light from waveguide using sensitive charge-coupled device (CCD) camera with built-in integration functionality. This can be used investigation (loss, mode profile, bending properties, etc.) as well fabrication quality waveguides. With this technique, we evaluate high-definition polymer printed circuit board (PCB) substrates very low loss 0.065 dB/cm at wavelength 850 nm, measurement accuracy is less than 0.01 dB/cm. expect given CCD to suitable reliably measuring coefficients below 0.1
