    Optical Characterization of (tlins<sub>2</Sub>)<sub>0.5< Crystal by Ellipsometry: Linear and Optical Constants for Optoelectronic Devices
    (Springer, 2023-06) Guler, I.; Isik, M.; Gasanly, N.
    TlInSSe [(TlInS2)(0.5)(TlInSe2)(0.5)] crystals have garnered significant attention as promising candidates for optoelectronic applications due to their exceptional optoelectrical characteristics. This study focused on investigating the linear and nonlinear optical properties of TlInSSe layered single crystals through ellipsometry measurements. The X-ray diffraction analysis revealed the presence of four distinct peaks corresponding to a monoclinic crystalline structure. In-depth analysis was conducted to examine the variations of refractive index, extinction coefficient, and complex dielectric function within the energy range of 1.25-6.15 eV. By employing derivative analysis of the absorption coefficient and utilizing the Tauc relation, the indirect and direct bandgap energies of TlInSSe crystals were determined to be 2.09 and 2.26 eV, respectively. Furthermore, this research paper presents findings on oscillator energy, dispersion energy, Urbach energy, zero and high frequency dielectric constants, plasma frequency, carrier density to effective mass ratio, nonlinear refractive index, and first-order and third-order nonlinear susceptibilities of TlInSSe crystals.

    Spectroscopic ellipsometry study of Bi<sub>12</sub>TiO<sub>20</sub> single crystals
    (Springer, 2021-02-23) Isik, M.; Gasanly, N. M.; Darvishov, N. H.; Bagiev, V. E.
    Bi12XO20 (X: Si, Ge, Ti, etc.) ternary compounds have attracted attention especially due to their fascinating photorefractive characteristics. The present paper introduces the structural and optical characteristics of Bi12TiO20 single crystals grown by Czochralski method. X-ray diffraction pattern of the compound exhibited sharp and intensive peaks corresponding to parallel planes of cubic crystalline structure. The lattice constant of the cubic structure was determined as a = 1.0118 nm using a diffraction pattern indexing program. The optical characterization of the Bi12TiO20 single crystals was carried through spectroscopic ellipsometry experiments performed in the 1.2-5.0 eV spectral range. The spectral dependencies of refractive index, extinction coefficient, and complex dielectric function were revealed analyzing experimental ellipsometric data under the light of sample-air optical model. The band gap energy of the compound was determined as 3.34 eV from the analyses of absorption coefficient. Three critical points at 3.51, 4.10, and 4.71 eV were obtained from the analyses of components of dielectric function using their second-energy derivative spectra.

    Analysis of Optical Constants and Temperature-Dependent Absorption Edge of Gas<sub>0.75</Sub>se<sub>0.25< Layered Crystals
    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2017-06) Isik, Mehmet; Gasanly, Nizami
    GaS0.75Se0.25 single crystals were optically characterized through transmission and reflection measurements in the wavelength range of 450-1000 nm. Derivative spectrophotometry analyses on temperature dependent transmittance spectra showed that band gap energies of the crystal increase from 239 eV (T=300 K) to 2.53 eV (T=10 K). Band gap at zero temperature, average phonon energy, electron phonon coupling parameter and rates of change of band gap energy with temperature were found from the temperature dependences of band gap energies under the light of different models reported in literature. Furthermore, the dispersion of room temperature refractive index was discussed in terms of single effective oscillator model. The refractive index dispersion parameters, namely oscillator and dispersion energies, zero-frequency refractive index, were determined as a result of analyses. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd.

    Interband Critical Points in Tlga<i><sub>x</Sub>< Layered Mixed Crystals (0 ≤ <i>x</I> ≤ 1)
    (Elsevier Science Sa, 2013-12) Isik, M.; Işık, Mehmet; Gasanly, N. M.; Işık, Mehmet; Department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering; Department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering
    The layered semiconducting TlGaxIn1-xS2 mixed crystals (0 <= x <= 1) were studied by spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements in the 1.2-6.2 eV spectral range at room temperature. The spectral dependence of the components of the complex dielectric function, refractive index and extinction coefficient were revealed using an optical model. The interband transition energies in the studied samples were found from the analysis of the second-energy derivative spectra of the complex dielectric function. The variation of the obtained energies with composition were plotted to see the effect of the substitution of indium with gallium. Moreover, a simple diagram showing the revealed transitions in the available electronic band structure was given for TlGaS2 single crystals. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights

    Thermoluminescence Dose Response and Kinetic Parameters of Gd-Doped Zno Nanoparticles
    (Iop Publishing Ltd, 2024-06-12) Isik, M.; Yildirim, T.; Guner, M.; Gasanly, N. M.
    This study investigates the thermoluminescence (TL) properties of undoped and gadolinium (Gd)-doped zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles synthesized via sol-gel method. The crystal structure of both synthesized nanoparticles was determined as hexagonal from x-ray diffraction pattern. The TL curve of undoped ZnO nanoparticles reveals two distinct peaks at 400.5 and 479.2 K, each associated with trap centers featuring activation energies of 0.84 and 1.05 eV. TL curve of the Gd:ZnO introduced three peaks associated with trap centers at 1.10, 1.18, and 1.25 eV. Notably, the absence of the 0.84 eV trap center in Gd-doped ZnO implies a modification in the defect structure. Considering the effect of Gd-doping on the band structure and potential minor errors in the analysis results, it was stated that the traps at 1.05 and 1.10 eV levels belonged to the same defect center. Dose-dependent investigations for undoped and Gd-doped ZnO nanoparticles reveal linear behaviors in the TL response, highlighting their potential for dosimetric applications. Photoluminescence spectra of both compounds exhibited emission peaks around 455 and 577 nm, which were associated with native defect centers.

    Excitation Wavelength Dependent Nonlinear Absorption Mechanisms and Optical Limiting Properties of Bi12sio20 Single Crystal
    (Elsevier, 2023-06) Dogan, Anil; Karatay, Ahmet; Isik, Mehmet; Pepe, Yasemin; Gasanly, Nizami; Elmali, Ayhan
    Nonlinear absorption mechanisms (NA), excitation wavelength dependence, and defect states of Bi12SiO20 (BSO) single crystal were investigated. The band gap and Urbach energies were found to be 2.51 and 0.4 eV from the absorption spectra. To evaluate the effect of excitation energy on the NA mechanism of the BSO single crystal, open aperture Z-scan experiment with 4 ns laser pulse at 532 and 1064 nm wavelengths with different intensities was performed. Obtained data were analyzed with a theoretical model considering the contributions of one photon absorption (OPA), two photon absorption (TPA) and free carrier absorption (FCA) to NA. The results indicated that the NA behavior decreased with increasing of the pump intensity as the defect states at around 2.32 eV by OPA at 532 nm, and TPA at 1064 nm excitations. The dominant NA mechanisms are OPA and sequential TPA at 532 nm as compared to the 1064 nm. A higher NA coefficient was obtained at 532 nm as compared to 1064 nm excitation. This observation was attributed to higher contribution of OPA at 532 nm even at lower input intensities compared to TPA contribution at 1064 nm. Onset optical limiting thresholds were found as 0.34 and 0.68 mJ/cm2 for 532 and 1064 nm input beams, respectively. In the light of the results, the BSO single crystal may be used as a saturable absorber or an optical limiter at convenient input intensity by effectively adjusting defect states and excitation wavelength.

    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2016-04) Isik, Mehmet; Gasanly, Nizami
    Optical properties of CuIn5S8 crystals grown by Bridgman method were investigated by ellipsometry measurements. Spectral dependence of optical parameters; real and imaginary parts of the pseudodielectric function, pseudorefractive index, pseudoextinction coefficient, reflectivity and absorption coefficients were obtained from the analysis of ellipsometry experiments performed in the 1.2-6.2 eV spectral region. Analysis of spectral dependence of the absorption coefficient revealed the existence of direct band gap transitions with energy 1.53 eV. Wemple-DiDomenico and Spitzer-Fan models were used to find the oscillator energy, dispersion energy, zero-frequency refractive index and high-frequency dielectric constant values. Structural properties of the CuIn5S8 crystals were investigated using X-ray diffraction and energy dispersive spectroscopy analysis. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Temperature-dependent material characterization of CuZnSe<sub>2</sub> thin films
    (Elsevier Science Sa, 2020-05) Gullu, H. H.; Surucu, O.; Terlemezoglu, M.; Isik, M.; Ercelebi, C.; Gasanly, N. M.; Parlak, M.
    In the present work, CuZnSe2 (CZSe) thin films were co-deposited by magnetron sputtering of ZnSe and Cu targets. The structural analyses resulted in the stoichiometric elemental composition and polycrystalline nature without secondary phase contribution in the film structure. Optical and electrical properties of CZSe thin films were investigated using temperature-dependent optical transmission and electrical conductivity measurements. The band gap energy values were obtained using transmittance spectra under the light of expression relating absorption coefficient to incident photon energy. Band gap energy values were found in decreasing behavior from 2.31 to 2.27 eV with increase in temperature from 10 to 300 K. Temperature-band gap dependency was evaluated by Varshni and O'Donnell models to detail the optical parameters of the thin films. The experimental dark and photoconductivity values were investigated by thermionic emission model over the grain boundary potential. Room temperature conductivity values were obtained in between 0.91 and 4.65 ( x 10(-4) Omega(-1)cm(-1)) under various illumination intensities. Three different linear conductivity regions were observed in the temperature dependent profile. These linear regions were analyzed to extract the activation energy values.

    Wavelength Dependence of the Nonlinear Absorption Performance and Optical Limiting in Bi12tio20 Single Crystal
    (Elsevier, 2023-01) Pepe, Yasemin; Isik, Mehmet; Karatay, Ahmet; Gasanly, Nizami; Elmali, Ayhan
    In this study, the influence of excitation wavelength and input intensity on the nonlinear absorption (NA) mechanism and optical limiting behavior of the Bi12TiO20 (BTO) single crystal were reported. The energy band gap of the BTO single crystal was obtained to be 2.38 eV. Urbach energy revealed that the single crystal has a highly defective structure. Open aperture (OA) Z-scan experiments were conducted at 532 and 1064 nm exci-tation wavelengths at various input intensities. Obtained experimental data were analyzed with a theoretical model considering one photon, two-photon and free carrier absorption contributions to NA. The obtained results revealed that the BTO single crystal possesses NA. The NA coefficient increased with increasing input intensity at 532 nm excitation wavelength, while it decreased with increasing input intensity at 1064 nm excitation wave-length. Due to the intense localized defect states distribution at the energy of 532 nm excitation wavelength within the band gap, increasing contribution to NA came from one photon absorption (OPA), sequential two -photon absorption (TPA) and free carrier absorption (FCA) with increasing input intensity. The filling of the defect states at 1064 excitation wavelength caused a reduction in NA due to increasing saturable absorption with increasing input intensity. TPA coefficients were also found from the fitting ignoring the defect states. As ex-pected, the values of the nonlinear absorption coefficient beta eff are higher than that of the TPA coefficients for both excitation wavelengths. The optical limiting threshold of the BTO single crystal was obtained to be 6.62 mJ/cm2. The results of the present works indicated that BTO single crystal can be used as a potential optical limiter.
