A method of writing extended modified regions with complex structure, which can act as waveguide microstructures in the interior of porous glass plates impregnated by solutions of silver salts, by means of 1.07 μm continuous-wave ytterbium fiber laser is examined. The results of studies of extended modified regions by optical methods are presented. Similar microstructures in the interior of glass can easily become base elements of fiber-optic systems for different applications.
