In this study, the amorphous Ba0.7Sr0.3TiO3 (BST0.7) thin films were grown onto fused quartz and silicon substrates
at low temperature by using a metal organic decomposition (MOD)-spin-coating procedure. The optical transmittance
spectrum of amorphous BST0.7 thin films on fused quartz substrates has been recorded in the wavelength range 190~900
nm. The films were highly transparent for wavelengths longer than 330 nm; the transmission drops rapidly at 330 nm,
and the cutoff wavelength occurs at about 260 nm. In addition, we also report the amorphous BST0.7 thin film
groove-buried type waveguides with 90° bent structure fabricated on Si substrates with 1.65 μm thick SiO2 thermal
oxide layer. The design, fabrication and optical losses of amorphous BST0.7 optical waveguides were presented. The
amorphous BST0.7 thin films were grown onto the SiO2/Si substrates by using a metal organic decomposition
(MOD)-spin-coating procedure. The optical propagation losses were about 12.8 and 9.4 dB/cm respectively for the 5 and
10 μm wide waveguides at the wavelength of 632.8 nm. The 90° bent structures with a small curvature of micrometers
were designed on the basis of a double corner mirror structure. The bend losses were about 1.2 and 0.9 dB respectively
for 5 and 10 μm wide waveguides at the wavelength of 632.8 nm. It is expected for amorphous BST0.7 thin films to be
used not only in the passive optical interconnection in monolithic OEICs but also in active waveguide devices on the Si
chip.
