Abstract

The observation is reported of a strong negative change in the refractive index of tin-doped thin silica films deposited by helicon activated reactive evaporation. Samples with concentrations between 5 and 25 mol% SnO₂ were exposed to 2kJ/cm² of 248 nm UV radiation. Negative refractive index changes as large as -2.7 × 10^-3 were observed on irradiation.
