Abstract
In this work we present a locally developed integrated optics technology for the fabrication and characterization of integrated optical components. The fabrication was carried out using the ion exchange in glass. Both single mode guides and multi-mode interference MMI splitter are, for the first time in Egypt, fabricated and tested. For the characterization purpose, an automated setup is developed in order to scan for the reflection sites within the integrated optical structures.
