    Abstract: Optical waveguides suitable for use in high temperature environments are constructed of a waveguiding body composed of a first crystalline aluminum garnet, which is clad with an epitaxially deposited layer of a second crystalline aluminum garnet. The second crystalline aluminum garnet has a lower refractive index than the first crystalline aluminum garnet. When there is sufficient lattice mismatch between garnet substrate and cladding layer, strain is induced which causes stress with resultant birefringence in the waveguiding layer. Such birefringent waveguides maintain polarization of light propagated therein.

    Abstract: A sensor for use in an optic system to detect current conditions in an environment. The sensor has a crystal member with a first waveguide extending from a top surface and a second waveguide extending from a bottom surface of a core member. Polarized light waves from a source are simultaneously communicated to the first and second waveguides. A first pressure is communicated to the top surface of the crystal member and an unknown pressure corresponding to the pressure of the environment is communicated to the bottom surface of the crystal member. The first pressure and the unknown pressure develop a pressure differential which act on the crystal member to deform the first and second waveguides. The deformation of the first and second waveguides modify the polarized light waves to create first and second output waves which are communicated to an optical interface where differences therebetween are extracted. The differences are analyzed by a computer to identify the current pressure and temperature of the environment.
