Recent Developments in Direct-UV-Written Planar Waveguides, Gratings, Sensors, and Substrates
We present our recent developments in direct-UV-written integrated optical devices, based on applications in telecommunications, material characterisation, and optical sensing. The inherent advantages of this channel definition technique over traditional etching based approaches are reiterated and demonstrated in the production of small angle, low loss X-couplers with negligible polarisation de...

متن کاملTechnology of Optical Bragg's Gratings on Planar Waveguides for Acoustooptic Applications
The aim of the presented investigations was to develop a technique of producing Bragg's gratings on planar waveguides for their application in acoustooptic structures. Waveguides are obtained by means of the sol-gel technology and they are deposited on piezoelectric plates. The introduction of a beam of light into the structure of the waveguide is in the case of planar or strip optical systems ...
