Abstract
A method for one-step field-assisted silver-sodium ion exchange is proposed for the preparation of buried multimode optical strip waveguides in glass. Silver ions were supplied by a silver strip. A sodium nitrate melt was used as the anode, as well as for waveguide burial. The method provides good control over the waveguide cross-section.Keywords
