Abstract :
Material dispersion data for glasses prepared by the PCVD method are presented and discussed with respect to data obtained by other deposition procedures. The investigations include the material systems pure SiO2 and SiO2 doped with germanium dioxide, germanium dioxide/fluorine and pure fluorine, respectively.
