Date Jun. 1, 1995A composite glass film waveguide tunable laser is described, wherein the film is about 10-80 wt. % silica, 20-90 wt. % metal oxide, and 0-90 wt. % polyacrylate, and the film is doped with a tunable organic monomeric laserdye and deposited on a substrate, said film having a higher refractive index than that of said substrate. Processes of preparation are also disclosed. |
