Tin ions were implanted into silica substrates at 275 keV. The samples
were annealed at 300-1000 degrees C. The as-implanted and annealed sa
mples were studied by the infrared specular reflectance technique. Kra
mers-Kronig transformation (KKT) was carried out on the reflectance sp
ectra to obtain n, k, transverse optical (TO), and longitudinal optica
l (LO) spectra. Based on these spectra, we can understand the effects
of ion implantation and annealing on the Si-O-Si bond angle, Si-O-Si b
ond breaking, and density change of implanted silica. (C) 1998 Publish
