The structures are designed to provide an interface between light traveling in a glass waveguide and some other optical medium such as an electro-optic polymer. They consist of surface and buried waveguide sections. The buried waveguide sections are centered 5 to 10 mm below the surface and provide low propagation losses and convenient coupling to optical fibers. 2, record 2, English, - buried%20waveguide
