Abstract :
Scaling rules implicit in the model for field assisted ion diffusion into glass have been experimentally observed in planar guides made by the diffusion of silver ions from silver films into soda-lime glass. These scaling rules are observed despite the relatively poor agreement between the refractive index profile and calculations.
