| Abstract: | Strip waveguides, recorded by UV lithography into photopolymer films were characterized as leaky guides. The effective modes indices of the guides have been measured by the prism coupling method. It is demonstrated that application of the  effective index method on leaky strip guides allows the determination of the optical pattern parameters throughout an exposure or annealing procedure. |
