Channel Waveguide Study

Abstract

Calculations of the properties of stripe guides previously described are extended to include calculations of the coupling coefficient, critical coupling length, and voltage behavior for diffused Gaussian stripe guides. A new technique for generating stripe guide couplers and other long narrow structures is described; it is based on the shadowing effect of thick slits placed between source and substrate during evaporation; and seems capable of generating the types of stripe guides being studied. Materials studied are lithium niobates and tantalates.
