Abstract
The electro-optic properties of proton implanted LiNbO3 waveguides are inve stigated by measuring the guided mode angular shift when an electric field is applied. It is shown that the values of the r(13) and r(33) electro-opti c coefficients are rather well preserved in the waveguides, being independe nt of the implanted-proton dose in the investigated range (1-10x10(16) ions /cm(2)).
