Recently, the effect of nanograting formation was demonstrated for binary sodium borate glass with the possibility of data storage with an enhanced level of security. The obvious disadvantage of such glass is poor chemical stability, which limits real applications. In this paper, we show that the introduction of Al 2 O 3 allows preserving the possibility of nanograting formation with a significant increase of chemical resistance and thus to preserve optical memory applications. On the other hand, the possibility of selective etching of laser-written tracks by means of distilled water is revealed, which was not demonstrated for other types of glasses. The dependence of retardance of nanogratings form birefringence on laser writing parameters is established and discussed. Structural features of laser-modified microdomains are studied via Raman spectroscopy which revealed an increase of three-coordinated boron content. A possible mechanism of selective etching is discussed.
