Direct ultraviolet writing of channel waveguides in congruent lithium niobate single crystals

Direct ultraviolet writing of channel waveguides in congruent lithium niobate single crystals
Direct ultraviolet writing of channel waveguides in congruent lithium niobate single crystals
We report the fabrication of optical channel waveguides in congruent lithium niobate single crystals by direct writing with continuous-wave ultraviolet frequency-doubled Ar+ laser radiation (244nm). The properties and performance of such waveguides are investigated, and first results are presented.

Abstract

We report the fabrication of optical channel waveguides in congruent lithium niobate single crystals by direct writing with continuous-wave ultraviolet frequency-doubled Ar+ laser radiation (244nm). The properties and performance of such waveguides are investigated, and first results are presented.
