groups of the Li 2 B 4 O 7 lattice. The results are helpful for understanding the radiation<br />

induced charge transfer processes.<br />

Design and fabrication of diffractive optical elements and waveguides by ion<br />

implantation. –– Slab waveguides have been designed and fabricated in erbium doped<br />

tellurite glass samples, implanting 1.5 MeV N + ions with doses in the 10 16 – 10 17 ions/cm 2<br />

range. The waveguides were studied using the following methods: M-line test, to check the<br />

functionality of the samples, interference contrast microscopy, to determine the total<br />

modulation of the refractive index in the structures, cathode luminescence (CL), electron<br />

diffraction pattern (EDX) analysis, and spectroscopic ellipsometry, to determine the indepth<br />

refracive index profile of the waveguides. The results showed that the waveguides<br />

were of barrier-type, i.e. the ion implantation produced a negative refractive index change<br />

around the maximum of the distribution of the implanted ions.<br />

History of science. –– The collaboration of the Crystal Physics Department and the<br />

Crystal Physics Ggroup at the Budapest Technical University was analyzed.<br />
