摘要:
Interference film filters and optical waveguides with low loss of light, including a laminate deposition-formed on a substrate (1,30) by alternate sputtered lamination of a first film (2,4,10) of amorphous Si x C y O z (x:y:z = 1:0.6-1:0-0.5) having refractive index up to 3.4 and an extinction coefficient below 0.1 and a second thin film (3,5,20) of amorphous Si x O y C z (x:y:z = 1:1.8-2:0-0.5) having a low refractive index in comparison with that of the first thin film. The two film types may be sputtered from a single sintered SiC target by varying oxygen content of a sputter gas mixture.
