The ultrafast laser inscription of photonic devices for integrated optical applications

A study of some key areas in which ultrafast laser inscription may usefully be employed is presented. The thesis includes waveguide inscription in a variety of substrates including passive glass, doped glass and a nonlinear crystal. The work contained can be split into three studies, with some overl...
