Materials and processes for integrated optics are faced with increasing demands from telecommunications and instrumentation applications. Progress in three aspects of novel materials and processes are described: titanium-diffused sapphire waveguides and lasers, interferometric excimer laser ablation of waveguide gratings, and surface studies by waveguide surface plasmon resonance.
