A method of forming an optical device in a body (), comprises performing a plurality of laser scans () to form the optical device, each scan comprising relative movement of a laser beam and the body thereby to scan the laser beam along a respective path () through the body to alter the refractive index of material of that path, wherein the paths are arranged to provide in combination a route for propagation of light through the optical device in operation that is larger in a direction substantially perpendicular to the route for propagation of light than any one of the paths individually.

Method of forming an optical device by laser scanning

An optical adapter that is arranged to connect two or more optical devices that have different connector layouts, the optical adapter comprising a material through which a plurality of waveguides is formed, the waveguides defining a first connector configuration at one end or face of the material and a second connector configuration at another, or same end or face of the material.
