Abstract
Guiding structures have been produced on the surface of fluoride glass by ionic exchange between fluoride ions of the substrate and chloride ions from HCl gas. The planar waveguides have been qualified by using analytical tools (SEM, EDX, SIMS) and optical characterizations such as m-lines method. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
