Abstract
Drastic changes in index of refraction and volume shrinkage of spin-on-glass films induced by P+ implantation are reported. An increase in refraction index (n) as large as 20% (from 1.38 to 1.79) has been measured following 1.6×1016 cm -2 implantations. The changes in n are accompanied by a volume shrinkage of similar magnitude. However, at doses exceeding ≊1015 cm-2 the shrinkage saturates while the index of refraction continues to increase indicating that material changes other than simple densification must be responsible for the observed rise in refractive index.
