Abstract
Fabrication of planar integrated optical waveguides on fluorozirconate glasses for medium infrared applications is described for the first time. ZBLAN glass (zirconium barium lanthanium aluminium sodium fluoride) was processed at relatively high temperature in a chlorine atmosphere, and waveguiding has been observed in He-Ne light. >
