Description/Abstract
We report on the confocal microspectroscopic characterization of planar optical waveguides fabricated in yttrium vanadate (YVO ions. By comparing with previous works, we have estimated an equivalent residual stress of 0.1 GPa. The possible mechanisms at the origin of waveguide formation have been also discussed.
