Abstract
In this paper we reported design, fabrication, and characterization of the integrated optic devices formed on glass substrate with the thermo-optical operation principle. The results of complex dynamic calculation of the thermally-induced buried channel waveguides have been reported. Switching energy level and delay time have been expressed as a result of complex analysis of integrated optic elements based on thermally-induced waveguides. The 4 X 4 multi-mode waveguide switch array has been elaborated and its characteristics are discussed.
