<<Do you have a link/site/other suggestion as to a resource I might look at regarding reliability of polymers?>> Sure. Off the Lumera website are several Dr. Dalton white papers. If the answer is not in those, there is a long list of referenced papers in the appendices. I see one (#13) that talks about "highly stable ...". lumera.com Please post your findings. Whatever you think the issue is, remember that it is probably less of a problem for KVH. Lumera and others have to make planar optical microchips work with the materials. KVHI just has to use a tiny bit in the core of about 1" of optical "D" fiber. The problems with the polymers are not the same. Lumera's challenge is much more difficult.
