We present the experimental realization of an innovative parallel partially overlapping waveguides (PO-WGs) model grounded in the thermal accumulated regime and fabricated using femtosecond (fs) laser direct-writing within low-iron bulk glass. The 75mm long novel PO-WGs model was made by partially overlapping the shell parts of two core-shell types of waveguides via a back-and-forth single pass fs-laser inscription. The detailed evolution of the PO-WGs model from inception to completion was offered, accompanying by a thorough characterization, which unveils a substantial refractive index (RI) change, on the order of 10-3, alongside low propagation loss (0.2 dB/cm) and distinctive features associated with the single mode and shell-guided light. Notably, the unsaturated performance of PO-WGs model after the primary inscription paves the way for potential applications in the successful creation of two distinctive types of Bragg gratings: first-order dot-Bragg grating and second-order line-Bragg grating. The 75 mm long dot-Bragg grating was written by a periodic dot array with a height of 6 µm atop the PO-WGs, and the birefringence was measured of 1.5 × 10-5 with a 16 pm birefringence-induced wavelength difference. The line-Bragg grating, which was inscribed with dual PO-WGs extending the line grating part to 40 mm in length along its period for increasing the transmission dip, exhibits a pronounced polarization dependence showcasing an effective birefringence of 4.2 × 10-4 at the birefringence-induced wavelength difference of 0.45 nm. We delved into the slow-light effects of the two Bragg gratings thoroughly, which the theoretical analysis revealed an effective group delay of 0.58 ns (group index 2.3) for the dot-Bragg grating. Similarly, the line-Bragg grating exhibited an effective group delay of 0.3 ns (group index 2.3), in good agreement with experimental measurements. These findings underscore the exciting potential of our gratings for creating optical slow-wave structures, particularly for future on-chip applications.
