摘要
A K+ ion-exchanged glass optical waveguide (OWG) was combined with an Ag+ ion-exchanged glass OWG on one substrate by tapered velocity coupling to obtain a low loss and highly sensitive ion-exchanged OWG system. The relative sensitivity of the Ag+-doped region was more than 1000 times per unit length (the reference here being spectroscopic measurements with normal incidence of monitoring light). The attenuation of the guided Light was 3-5 dB cm(-1) at the highly sensitive part. Stability against heat and against UV-irradiation were investigated also.
