We have investigated the guided optical properties of a Ti:LiNbO$_3$optical waveguide which was fabricated by Ti-diffusion in an air atmosphere and proposed an effective polishing method of waveguide endfaces. And the results of guided optical mode and fabrication condition were obtained as follows; \circled1 propagation loss : 0.53 dB/cm \circled2 mode size : horizontal/vertical=12.5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ \circled3 mode mismatch : 1.7 dB \circled4 diffusion temperature : 105$0^{\circ}C$, time : 8 hours \circled5 atmosphere : air

The diamond wheel with superabrasive is required for mirror-like surface grinding of brittle materials. But the conventional dressing mothod can not apply to the diamond wheel with superabrasive. Recently electrolytic dressing method was developed for cast-iron bonded diamond wheel with superabrasive. This technique can take replace of lapping and polishing. Using the electrolytic dressing, the surface roughness of workpiece was improved largely and grinding force was very low and the continuity of the grinding force was also very improved. In this study, the purpose is the realization of mirror-like surface grinding of ferrite with electrolytic dressing of metal bonded diamond wheel. For application of ultraprecision grinding for brittle material, superabrasive wheel, air spindle and inprocess electrolytic dressing were used. In addition, the effects of pick current and pulse width on ground surface were investigated, and the suitable dressing conditions for ferrite were found out.
