The properties of oxide and fluoride thinfilms useful for such an application vary with time.The vapour chopping technique developed in ourlaboratory has proved to improve the properties ofoxide and fluoride thin films useful to builtwaveguide elements. The ageing effect on thesematerials were found to reduce by using vapourchopping technique.
