Abstract

Monolayer monomode and multilayer multimode BaTiO3 waveguides have been prepared on amorphous silica substrates by using the dip-coating technique and the sol-gel process. After heat treatment, these waveguides were hard and of good optical quality (losses as low as 2.6 dB/cm were measured) but, their structure was found to depend strongly on the number of layers. Monolayer waveguides were totally amorphous even when heated at 1000°C, while multilayer ones exhibited the tetragonal BaTiO3 structure at an annealing temperature of 600°C.
