As shown in fig. 6, a schematic diagram of a mach-zehnder electro-optic modulator is shown. The Mach-Zehnder electro-optic modulator realizes photoelectric conversion, and the main function of the electrocardio-sensing is realized by utilizing the electro-optic effect of the poled polymer.

When a certain external electric signal is applied to the modulation arm waveguide, the effective refractive index of the modulation arm waveguide is influenced due to the electro-optic effect of the polarized polymer material, so that the propagation mode of light in the modulation arm waveguide is influenced.
The electrooptical effect of the polarized polymer mainly refers to the second-order nonlinear optical property of the nonlinear electrooptical polymer material, but because the second-order nonlinear optical property of the polymer is weaker, the polymer material contains chromophore molecules through doping, linking or crosslinking and the like, and then the polymer material has higher second-order nonlinear optical property through polarization treatment. The nonlinear polymer material is realized by doping chromophore CLD-1 in polymethyl methacrylate, and the doping concentration is 30 wt%.
FIG. 7 shows a schematic diagram of a polarization process of a nonlinear polymer. Firstly, crosslinking chromophore molecules with larger microscopic second-order polarizability with a main polymer, and heating to the temperature near the glass transition temperature; then, a strong direct current polarization electric field is applied to the polymer film through the upper electrode and the lower electrode, so that charges in chromophore molecules are oriented along the direction of the electric field, the central symmetry of the cross-linked polymer material is broken, and the anisotropic non-central symmetry is realized, so that the polymer material has the electro-optic characteristic; and finally, cooling under the condition of keeping the electric field unchanged to ensure that the orientation of the polymer is fixed, and keeping the second-order optical nonlinearity obtained after polarization for a long time, wherein the polymer material after polarization has the electro-optic characteristic.
Fig. 8 is a schematic diagram showing two polarization modes. The polarization process is classified into corona-type polarization and contact-type polarization according to the type of polarization. The corona polarization uses a needle electrode or a wire electrode, a strong electric field is generated inside a polymer film by corona discharge on the surface of a polymer material, the dipole moment of chromophore molecules is further oriented in the direction of the electric field, the shape of the corona polarization electric field is elliptic, the concentration effect in a polarization area is strong because the needle electrode or the wire electrode is used in the corona polarization, and the polarization voltage is usually small in order to obtain a large electro-optic coefficient and not damage the polymer film, wherein (a) is a schematic diagram of the corona polarization mode. Different from a corona type polarization mode, contact type polarization utilizes a planar electrode, the contact type polarization is that a strong electric field is directly applied to a polymer film, the orientation of dipole moment of chromophore molecules according to the direction of the electric field is realized by directly contacting with the surface of the polymer film for charging and discharging, the polarization electric field direction is planar, compared with the corona type polarization, the electric field formed by the contact type polarization is more uniform, the polarization voltage requirement is higher, but the contact type polarization is more difficult to implement because the polymer film is easily damaged in the contact process and the condition requirement is higher, and (b) is shown as a schematic diagram of the contact type polarization mode. In this embodiment, a corona polarization mode is used, the positive electrode is a needle electrode, and the negative electrode is connected to an ITO conductive glass substrate. The polarization voltage of the polarization process is 1.8kV, the polarization temperature is 85 ℃, the polarization time is 30min, and the electro-optic coefficient of the nonlinear polymer is 70pm/V through experimental measurement.

After the polydimethylsiloxane coating film is successfully coated in a spinning mode, curing and surface modification are carried out, and an adhesion promoter is coated to enable the nonlinear polymer material to be smoothly coated above the polydimethylsiloxane coating in a spinning mode.

Dry etching with SF 6 And O 2 Mixed gas with gas flow rate ratio of SF 6 :O 2 =15:3。
FIG. 10 is a schematic diagram of a process flow for modifying the surface of a PDMS coating. Because polydimethylsiloxane has very low surface energy and shows hydrophobic characteristics after film formation, the coating of a nonlinear polymer material is difficult, and therefore, a polydimethylsiloxane cladding needs to be modified to show hydrophilicity so as to enhance the film formation quality of a nonlinear polymer material film on the polydimethylsiloxane cladding. This example uses O 2 The surface of the polydimethylsiloxane film is modified by a plasma (oxygen plasma) cleaning method.
