An automated system is reported in this work with the goal of fabricating photonic structures by the direct-write technique with femtosecond laser pulses. This technique uses a finely focused laser beam into transparent substrates and the translation of the substrate along directions parallel and perpendicular to the propagation direction of the incident laser beam. Control procedures related to laser pulses and sample translation were implemented and integrated, giving rise to a fully automated femtosecond writing system. Functional straight-line and curved waveguides have been successfully achieved with the automated writing system, where single mode propagation is observed from their near filed profiles when 635 nm light is injected and guided. In addition, the possibility of writing 2D and 3D photonic structures is confirmed by tracing a logarithmic spiral structure (2D) and a fan-out structure (3D). These results show that the developed system is fully operational in practice for the purpose of fabricating a variety of photonic structures with potential applications in modern communication networks and integrated photonic circuits.
