title = "Optimization of LPCVD Silicon Oxynitride growth to large refractive index homogeneity and layer thickness uniformity",
abstract = "The thickness non-uniformity and refractive index in- homogeneity of silicon oxynitride thin films, grown by low pressure chemical vapor deposition, have been optimized. The present work was especially motivated by the application of these thin films as well defined waveguides in phase-matched second harmonic generating devices, which are well known for their extremely high requirements to uniformity and homogeneity. However, other demanding integrated optical components like gratings, sensor systems, telecommunication devices, etc., also strongly benefit from highly uniform waveguides.",
