Abstract
Replica molding of ultra-high-Q toroidal microresonators can produce polymer microresonators with material-limited quality factors (Q). This was demonstrated previously using polymers which cure thermally. In this work, high Q polymer microresonators were fabricated using the replica molding technique from previously uncharacterized polymers which require either a thermal or UV cure. The quality factor and effective refractive index of whispering gallery modes was measured at wavelengths ranging from the visible (680nm) through the near-IR (1550nm). The optical absorption coefficient (material absorption) of these previously uncharacterized polymers was determined from the quality factor and effective refractive index of the polymer.
