Abstract
Nd: KGd(WO4)2 thin films were deposited by KrF laser ablation on YAP and MgO substrates at substrate temperatures up to 800°C. Films stoichiometry (using RBS and PIXE) and waveguiding properties were studied in connection with deposition conditions. The RBS and PIXE measurements of the prepared samples are presented.
