Abstract
We report on a poling process of soda-lime glasses that reduces their surface conductivity by five orders of magnitude. We show that this process enables the in-plane poling of high (180 °C) electro-optic (EO) polymers coated on ion-exchanged channel waveguides fabricated in soda-lime glasses for hybrid modulators.
