Abstract :
The index profiles of multimode strip waveguides, which are fabricated and buried by field-assisted ion exchange processes in glasses, follow from the distribution of the applied drift field. A comparison between theoretical solutions and accurate measurements of the two-dimensional index profiles confirms that a precise calculation in terms of the technological parameters is possible.
