Abstract

Polymethylsilsesquioxane(PMSQ)s with photo-curable groups were prepared by copolymerization of alkoxysilanes. Poly(acryloyl-co-methylsilsesquioxane)(PAMSQ)s of various mole ratio acryloyl group (6 mol%, 12 mol%, 24 mol%, 48 mol%, 100 mol%) were obtained from copolymerization of methyltrimethoxylsilane and 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl acrylate. Optical and photonic curable properties were studied by near infrared region spectra, prism coupler, UV-visible spectra, and photo-DSC. The optical losses were below 0.002 dB/cm at 830, 1330, and 1550 nm, respectively. Optical loss was found to be independent of a molar ratio of functional group.
