摘要
Low-repetition-rate (1 kHz) femtosecond laser inscription is used to fabricate channel waveguides in Nd:YAG crystal. Guiding occurs in the surroundings of the focal spot. End-to-end coupling measurements reveal the near-field intensity distribution of waveguides. The index profile reconstruction, mode analysis performed by the beam propagation method of these waveguides are presented. The waveguide written with 3.0 mu J pulse energy and 100 mu m/s scan velocity shows strong guidance at 632.8 nm, and a propagation loss of about 0.5 dB/mm. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
