Summary: | The fabrication of SiON and Erbium (Er) doped SiON films have been successfully
developed using the sputtering and co-sputtering techniques. The properties of the films
such as the optical properties, the compositions, the chemical bonds and the
microstructures, have been well characterized and studied using the spectroscopy
ellipsometry, Rutherford Backscattering, Fourier Transform Infrared and Raman
spectroscopy/XRD measurements respectively. Low optical films with desired refractive
index, in the range of 1.47 – 1.81 at 1550 nm, and compositions can be easily fabricated. |
