This systematically organized book is divided into four main sections that focus on glass waveguide fabrication processes, glass waveguides, and glass integrated optical devices. It describes virtually all aspects of ion-exchanged glass waveguides, from fabrication to techniques for characterization and analysis.
Ion exchange from salt melts; silver-film ion exchange technique; theoretical analysis of ion-exchanged glass waveguides; optical waveguide characterization techniques; waveguides and devices.
