Photosensitivity and directly UV written waveguides in an ion exchangeable bulk oxide glass

In this paper we present the direct writing of a germanosilicate glass doped with boron, known as SGBN. We report the first example, to our knowledge, of directly UV written waveguides in a bulk multicomponent oxide glass exposed to a frequency doubled Ar ion laser.
