Abstract

The most extensively studied methods used to produce optical waveguides in LiNbO3 crystals are summarised and the structures which form in the guiding layers are described. The various advantages and disadvantages of the methods are discussed on the basis of the most recent structural investigations. Particular attention is given to the correlations between optical and microstructural characteristics of the waveguiding layers.
