ABSTRACT:
An article and a method for making contact areas (221, 222, 230) on an optical waveguide (100, 200) are provided. A waveguide (100, 200) having a first surface (112) and a second surface (113) with a first indent (101) located on the first surface (112) and a second indent (102) located on the second surface (113) and a groove (104) is made interconnecting the first and second indents (101, 102). A low temperature melting member (111) is placed in the first indent (101) on the first surface (112) and is melted, thereby flowing the low temperature melting member into the groove (104) and into the second indent (102) located on the second surface (113).
