Abstract

Refractive index lithography was performed on polymer films consist of a photo-acid generator (PAG), t-BOC-protected naphthazarine as an acid chromic dye. The key reaction is the chemically amplified de-protection of the t-BOC group, by which color of the material change followed by refractive index change. Naphthazarine-containing polymer was also prepared. The induced refractive index was as large as 4×10-3, which is enough large to apply to optical waveguide fabrication.
