Inverted deposition and high-velocity spinning to develop buried planar chalcogenide glass waveguides for highly nonlinear integrated optics

Abstract: We report on buried planar waveguides in a highly nonlinear infrared transmitting chalcogenide glass, fabricated using a combination of inverted deposition of the molten glass phase and high-velocity spinning. Films of gallium lanthanum sulphide ͑Ga: La: S͒ glass were deposited onto an expansion coefficient matched Ga: La: S cladding substrate. These amorphous films, with an optimized composition designed to be resistant against crystallization, were observed to have an excellent interface quality and uniformi… Show more

“…Since the viscosity is more temperature dependent than the density, a temperature rise provokes thinner films. Although the rotation velocity is a squared term in the equation, the resulting poor film quality limits the use of high velocities [8]. With the parameters listed above, a film thickness of 30 μm was expected, which is consistent with the measured thickness (28 -32 μm).…”
