Figure 1 | Deposition comparison between optical-fibre and photonic chips. Schematic comparison of flame hydrolysis deposition for optical-fibre manufacturing and for integrated photonic wafers. In conventional fibre manufacturing, glass soot is deposited on a rotating rod and consolidated into a fibre preform. In this work, the process is adapted to oxidized silicon wafers to form high-germania germano-silicate films for integrated photonic devices.
