Abstract

Wide-wavelength tunability, from the blue to the near-infrared spectral regions, and spectrally narrow emission are achieved by embedding a silicon-rich oxide thin film in an optical microcavity structure. The low processing temperatures for these devices suggest compatibility with complementary metal oxide semiconductor fabrication techniques, indicating the potential of this material for integrated optoelectronic applications.

30. This was in fact confirmed by TEM except that the micrographs showed that the output couplers were eventhickerthan suggested by the model. One possible explanation is the significant variation in the optical constants of silver as obtained from different sources. See for example Handbook of Chemistry and Physics 76th ed. (Ed: D. R. Lide) CRC Press Boca Raton1995) andHandbook of Optical Constants of Solids(Ed: E. Palik) Academic Press Inc. New York1991). Error in the refractive indices could potentially account for the observed discrepancy in the measured and calculated thickness of the output coupling mirrors.
