Ultraviolet writing of channel waveguides in proton-exchanged LiNbO<sub>3</sub>

We report on a direct ultraviolet (UV) writing method for the fabrication of channel waveguides at 1.55 µm in LiNbO<sub>3</sub> through UV irradiation of surface and buried planar waveguides made by annealed proton exchange and reverse proton exchange. A systematic study of the guidance...
