摘要
Depressed cladding optical waveguides have been fabricated in a zinc sulfide (ZnS) crystal by femtosecond laser inscription. The structures support single-or multi-mode guidance at the mid-infrared wavelength of similar to 4 mu m. The two-dimensional refractive index profiles of the single-mode waveguides have been reconstructed, and the modal profiles of TE and TM modes were calculated numerically, that show very good agreement with the measured near-field modal profiles. The minimum propagation losses of the multimode cladding waveguides at 4 mu m were similar to 1.1 dB/cm for the TE polarization and similar to 1.3 dB/cm for the TM polarization.
