Thermal strain analysis in optical planar waveguides

For the first time, we derive an analytical form of the thermal-induced strain equation for the waveguide core layer in an optical planar waveguide, which is based on elastic interaction theory in multilayered isotropic structures off the edges by thin-film approximation. This derived equation addresses how material and structural characteristics affect the magnitude and the distribution of the strain. By this equation, the strain-induced birefringence can be reduced or eliminated by proper waveguide design.

Microstructured apertures in planar glass substrates for ion channel research

We have developed planar glass chip devices for patch clamp recording. Glass has several key advantages as a substrate for planar patch clamp devices. It is a good dielectric, is well-known to interact strongly with cell membranes and is also a relatively in-expensive material. In addition, it is optically neutral. However, microstructuring processes for glass are less well established than those for silicon-based substrates. We have used ion-track etching techniques to produce micron-sized apertures into borosilicate and quartz-glass coverslips. These apertures, which can be easily produced in arrays, have been used for high resolution recording of single ion channels as well as for whole-cell current recordings from mammalian cell lines. An additional attractive application that is greatly facilitated by the combination of planar geometry with the optical neutrality of the substrate is single-molecule fluorescence recording with simultaneous single-channel measurements.     

Fabrication of planar optical waveguides by K+-ion exchange in BK7 and Pyrex glass

Planar graded index optical waveguides have been formed by K+ ion exchange in BK7 optical glass and Pyrex glass. Measurements of the mode indexes have been made and are well described by the WKB dispersion relation with a complementary error function refractive index profile for both glass types with refractive index changes (Delta n) of 0.0094 and 0.0073 for BK7 and Pyrex, respectively. A linear relation was found between the diffusion depth and the square root of the diffusion time for both materials, and effective diffusion coefficients were calculated. Diffusion times necessary to achieve a desired number of modes and diffusion depths have also been established.     

Analysis of single mode inhomogeneous planar waveguides

A new method for obtaining the propagation characteristics of single mode inhomogeneous planar waveguides is presented. The method is based on the scalar variational principle and a new trial field-the cosine-exponential field-is proposed. A comparison with other methods and the exact numerical results shows that our method is much more accurate than the existing methods. The method also allows one to define an equivalent slab waveguide which is then used to obtain an accurate approximation for the propagation constant of the TM0-mode.
