Abstract

An analytical modelling of buried waveguides is presented. These waveguides are fabricated by a purely thermal ion back diffusion in glass, which is enhanced by applying an electric field across the substrate. The model is based on an approximation of low ionic concentration with arbitrary variation, in such a way that an approximate nonlinear diffusion equation can be solved under different boundary and initial conditions.
