High Fidelity Waveguides Through Vitreous Media Recomposition for Next Generation Photonic Devices
A newly designed aluminosilicate glass enables the fabrication of femtosecond laser‐written optical waveguides with ultra‐low propagation losses of −0.020 dB cm−1 at 1310 nm and −0.037 dB cm−1 at 1550 nm. Raman, Brillouin, and electron microscopy analyses reveal the mechanisms behind refractive index modifications, highlighting the role of glass ...

This work demonstrates the use of reactive laser annealing to selectively tune the epsilon‐near‐zero condition of tin‐doped indium oxide patches integrated in silicon waveguides. This postgrowth annealing technique enables flexible control over the optical constants of transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) at critical telecom wavelengths, paving the way
