Abstract

The possibilities of the formation of microoptical elements in the bulk of composite material on the basis of porous glass have been investigated. It has been demonstrated that due to the local laser heating-up of composition material, the local desorption of the adsorbate from a porous matrix is initiated that causes formation of microlenses. Other possibilities of microoptical filters formation have been studied based on electrodiffusion immobilization of dye ions. Characteristics of such elements are studied and possible applications are discussed.
