Abstract :
Germanium-sulphide glass has been fabricated directly by chemical vapour deposition in the form of thin films on semiconductor substrates and as a bulk glass. Analysis shows a high-purity amorphous material, which has high potential for the fabrication of the chalcogenide optical waveguides and devices.
