  • Abstract
    The propagation loss of single-mode optical waveguides in multiple implant SIMOX wafers has been used to assess the quality of the superficial silicon layer. Increased attenuation can be correlated to the creation of thermal and new donors. Some higher loss wafers also show interfacial roughness which gives rise to additional scattering losses.
