Reduction of hydrogen induced losses in PECVD-SiO/sub x/N/sub y/ optical waveguides in the near infrared

Abstract
The hydrogen in PECVD-SiO/sub x/N/sub y/ was studied with IR spectroscopy and ERD analysis as a function of the O/N ratio and the annealing treatment up to 1150/spl deg/C. The results were compared with measured spectral waveguide losses.
