Waveguides written in silver-doped tellurite glasses
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract We have studied the optical properties of channel waveguides written using a femtosecond laser in tellurite-zinc glasses doped with metallic silver (%TeO2%ZnO:Ag). Our findings showed that the tellurium dioxide glasses could be significantly affected by the silver presence, even with low silver concentration. By properly choosing the parameters and glassy matrix the written waveguides presented lower optical insertion losses and greater refractive index change.
