  • Abstract
    Systematic characterization of low-loss PECVD grown germanosilicate layers is reported. Addition of germane, decreased N-H bond concentration drastically leading to the lowest reported propagation loss values in germanosilicate planar waveguides, eliminating high temperature annealing requirement.
