Optical absorption and photoluminescence of Ge-doped silica films fabricated by the<br />
surface-plasma chemical vapor deposition (SPCVD) are studied in the 2-8 eV spectral<br />
band. The deposited on silica substrates films of about 10 microns in thickness are<br />
composed as Si 1-x Ge x O 2 with x ranging from 0.02 to 1. It is found that all as deposited<br />
films do not luminesce under the excitation by a KrF (5 eV) excimer laser thus<br />
indicating lack of oxygen deficient centers (ODCs) in them. After subsequent fusion of<br />
silicon containing (x
