Abstract

Fluorine-doped oxide is formed that is resistant to water absorption by the use of two sources of silicon, one being the fluorine precursor and the other being available to react with excess fluorine from the fluorine precursor, thereby reducing the number of fluorine radicals in the layer; the fluorine precursor containing a glass-forming element that combines with the other glass constituents to carry into the gas a diatomic radical containing one atom of fluorine and one atom of the glass-forming element.
