Abstract

The formation of paramagnetic centers upon γ-irradiation was examined for the silica based waveguides doped with P2O5 by using ESR and optical absorption. The centers inherent in SiO2 glasses such as Si-E′ and OHC were found to be replaced with P-related centers such as phosphorus oxygen hole centers and phosphorus electron center by introducing a small amount of P2O5. New type of POHC was detected especially in the glass with [P2O5] of 1.3 mol % at 77K, which was assumed to be a precursor of the POHC stable at room temperature. The correlation between γ-induced loss-increase and the formation of these defects was examined.
