RESUMO
This work reports the preparation of planar waveguides by ionic exchange in glasses tellurite doped with íons of erbium whose compositions are, 14Na2O-25W O3 - 60TeO2 - 1Er2O3 (mol%) and 2GeO2 - 10N a2O - 12ZnO - 75TeO2 - 1Er2 O3 (mol%), have been prepared multi-mode and single-mode waveguides, the depths of the waveguides can be controlled by the variation of ion-exchange temperatures and times. The glasses were prepared by a conventional melting and quenching technique. The glasses were cut and the two larger surfaces were polished for the ion-exchange and characterization. The Ag + - Na + ion-exchange was performed by submerging the glass samples in a molten salt bath containing 2AgN O3 - 49NaNO3 - 49KNO3 (%wt). The diffusion temperatures had been of 290°C to 360°C and diffusion times from 1h to 24h, depending on the glass. The glasses were chemically stable during the process of ion-exchange. The effective mode indices were measured by the prism coupler technique at 632,8nm, 1305,4nm and 1536nm at TE polarization. The index profile was calculated using the inverse WKB method and the profile by assuming as a gaussian function. From measured index profiles for the samples at various temperatures and times, were calculated the diffusion parameters, effective diffusion coefficients De and its temperature dependence as well as the activation energy ED
