Abstract:
Layered glass structures and fabrication methods are described. The methods include depositing soot on a dense glass substrate to form a composite structure and sintering the composite structure to form a layered glass structure. The dense glass substrate may be derived from an optical fiber preform that has been modified to include a planar surface. The composite structure may include one or more soot layers. The layered glass structure may be formed by combining multiple composite structures to form a stack, followed by sintering and fusing the stack. The layered glass structure may further be heated to softening and drawn to control linear dimensions. The layered glass structure or drawn layered glass structure may be configured as a planar waveguide.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of making a layered glass structure comprising:\n stacking a first dense glass layer on a composite structure, said composite structure including a first soot layer on a second dense glass layer, said first soot layer having a thickness of at least 100 \u03bcm.
