Abstract

A new and more-flexible and directly femtosecond laser writing technique for the fabrication of waveguides has been demonstrated. By using this avenue, waveguides of 5mm are produced, and their characters are discussed. At the same time, the two writing manners are compared and the related physical mechanisms are summarized in detail.
