    Spectroscopic Ellipsometry Characterization of Pbwo4 Single Crystals
    (Elsevier, 2022) Delice, S.; Isik, M.; Gasanly, N. M.; Darvishov, N. H.; Bagiev, V. E.
    Optical characterization of PbWO4 single crystals grown by Czochralski method was achieved in virtue of spectroscopic ellipsometry experiments carried out in the energy region of 1.0-5.6 eV at room temperature. Tetragonal scheelite structure with lattice parameters of a = b = 5.4619 & Aring; and c = 12.0490 & Aring; was determined for the bulk crystal utilizing from XRD analysis. Analyses of the ellipsometry data presented the photon energy dependencies of complex dielectric function of the crystal. The real part of the dielectric function exhibited increasing behavior with energy in the below 4.1 eV and then decreased immediately. Zero frequency refractive index and dielectric constant were determined to be 2.02 and 4.08, respectively, using Wemple and DiDomenico oscillator model. High frequency dielectric constant was calculated as 4.30 by Spitzer-Fan model. Optical band gap of PbWO4 was found to be 3.24 eV from the dielectric relaxation time spectrum. Moreover, existence of two critical points with energies of 3.70 and 4.58 eV was revealed from the analyses of extinction coefficient and second derivative of the dielectric function. These levels were considered to be due to creation of cation exciton (Pb2+ 6s(2) - Pb2+ 6s6p) and transitions in the [WO4](2-) group.

    (Elsevier Gmbh, 2022) Isik, M.; Gasanly, N. M.; Darvishov, N. H.; Bagiev, V. E.
    The double tungstates have been an attractive research interest due to their optoelectronic applications. In the present work, NaBi(WO4)(2), one of the members of double tungstates family, was grown by Czochralski method as single crystal form and optically investigated. X-ray diffraction pattern presented three peaks associated with tetragonal scheelite crystalline structure. Optical properties of the crystal were studied by performing temperature-dependent transmission measurements between 10 and 300 K. The shift of the absorption edge to higher energies was observed with decrease of temperature. The analyses indicated that direct band gap energy increases from 3.50 to 3.60 eV when the temperature was decreased from room temperature to 10 K. The temperature dependency of bandgap was studied considering the Varshni model and fitting of the experimental data under the light of model presented the optical parameters of band gap energy at 0 K, rate of band gap change with temperature and Debye temperature as E-g(0) = 3.61 eV, gamma = 8.83 x 10(-4) eV/K and beta = 456 K, respectively. Urbach energies were also determined from the analyses as 122 and 113 meV for 10 and 300 K experimental data, respectively.

    Trap Distribution in Tlins2 Layered Crystals From Thermally Stimulated Current Measurements
    (Korean Physical Soc, 2008) Isik, M.; Goksen, K.; Gasanly, N. M.; Ozkan, H.
    We have carried out thermally stimulated current (TSC) measurements with the current flowing along the layer on as-grown TlInS2 layered single crystals in the low temperature range 10 - 110 K with different heating rates of 0.1 - 1.5 K/s. Experimental evidence was found for the presence of two shallow electron trapping centers with activation energies of 12 and 14 meV. Their capture cross sections have been determined as 2.2 x 10(-23) and 7.1 x 10(-25) cm(2), respectively. It was concluded that retrapping in these centers is negligible, which was confirmed by the good agreement between the experimental results and the theoretical predictions of the model that assumed slow retrapping. An exponential distribution of electron traps was revealed from the analysis of the TSC data obtained at different light excitation temperatures. This experimental technique provided a value of 27 meV/decade for the trap distribution. The parameters of the monoclinic unit cell were determined by studying the X-ray powder diffraction.

    Electron-Lattice Interaction Scattering Mobility in Tl2ingase4< Single Crystals
    (Iop Publishing Ltd, 2008) Qasrawi, A. F.; Gasanly, N. M.
    In this work, the dark electrical resistivity, charge carrier density and Hall mobility of Tl(2)InGaSe(4) single crystal have been recorded and analyzed to investigate the dominant scattering mechanism in the crystal. The data analyses have shown that this crystal exhibits an extrinsic n-type conduction. The temperature-dependent dark electrical resistivity analysis reflected the existence of two energy levels as 0.396 and 0.512 eV, being dominant above and below 260 K, respectively. The temperature dependence of the carrier density was analyzed by using the single-donor-single-acceptor model. The latter analysis has shown that the above maintained 0.512 eV energy level is a donor impurity level. The compensation ratio for this crystal is determined as 0.96. The Hall mobility of Tl(2)InGaSe(4) is found to be limited by the scattering of electron-acoustic phonon interactions. The calculated theoretical acoustic phonon scattering mobility agrees with the experimental one under the condition that the acoustic deformation potential is 12.5 eV.

    Energy Band Diagram and Current Transport Mechanism in P-mgo/N-ga4<
    (Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2015) Qasrawi, Atef F.; Gasanly, N. M.
    A p-n heterojunction made of MgO and Ga4Se3S single crystal has been successfully produced. The current-voltage curve analysis has shown that the current conduction mechanism is mostly governed by the Richardson-Schottky mechanism. The width of the effective interface region of the p-n junction was found to be 3.72x10(-5)cm. The work function and the electron affinity of the Ga4Se3S crystals were also determined as 4.32 and 3.96 eV, respectively. On the other hand, the capacitance-voltage curve analysis, which was carried out in the power range that extends from Bluetooth to WLAN power outputs, reflected a built-in voltage of 0.48 eV and density of noncompensated carriers of 8.2 x 10(16)cm(-3). The device is observed to exhibit a wide range of negative resistance associated with the tunneling of charged particles at reverse biasing down to similar to 1.28 V. At that voltage, when exposed to a He-Ne laser beam of similar to 3 mW, the device reflected a responsivity of similar to 80. The charge storability increased and the I-V characteristics are significantly shifted. These properties are promising because it indicates the applicability of these tunneling devices in optoelectronics.

    (Polish Acad Sciences inst Physics, 2014) Isik, M.; Delice, S.; Gasanly, N. M.
    Thermoluminescence characteristics of TlInS2 layered single crystals grown by the Bridgman method were investigated in the low temperature range of 10-300 K. The illuminated sample with blue light (approximate to 470 nm) at 10 K was heated at constant heating rate. Curve fitting, initial rise and various heating rate methods were used to determine the activation energy of the trap levels. All applied methods showed good consistency about the presence of five trapping centers located at 14, 19, 350, 420, and 520 meV. Behavior of the TL curve for various heating rates was investigated. Traps distribution has also been studied. The activation energies of the distributed trapping centers were found to be increasing from 14 to 46 meV.

    Optical Properties of Cu3in5< Single Crystals by Spectroscopic Ellipsometry
    (Elsevier Gmbh, 2018) Isik, M.; Nasser, H.; Ahmedova, F.; Guseinov, A.; Gasanly, N. M.
    Cu3In5S9 single crystals were investigated by structural methods of x-ray diffraction and energy dispersive spectroscopy and optical techniques of ellipsometry and reflection carried out at room temperature. The spectral dependencies of optical constants; dielectric function, refractive index and extinction coefficient, were plotted in the range of 1.2-6.2 eV from ellipsometric data. The spectra of optical constants obtained from ellipsometry analyses and reflectance spectra presented a sharp change around 1.55 and 1.50 eV, respectively, which are associated with band gap energy of the crystal. The critical point (interband transition) energies were also found from the analyses of second-energy derivative of real and imaginary components of dielectric function. The analyses indicated the presence of four critical points at 2.73, 135, 4.04 and 4.98 eV.

    Y2O3 nanoparticles were investigated using low temperature thermoluminescence (TL) experiments. TL glow curve recorded at constant heating rate of 0.4 K/s exhibits seven peaks around 19, 62, 91, 115, 162, 196 and 215 K. Activation energies and characteristics of traps responsible for observed curves were revealed under the light of results of initial rise analyses and T-max-T-stop experimental methods. Analyses of TL curves obtained at different stopping temperatures resulted in presence of one quasi-continuously distributed trap with activation energies increasing from 18 to 24 meV and six single trapping centers at 49, 117, 315, 409, 651 and 740 meV. Activation energies of all revealed centers were reported in the present paper.

    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2013) Isik, M.; Gasanly, N. M.
    Dark electrical resistivity, space-charge-limited (SCL) current and photoconductivity measurements were carried out on Ga0.75In0.25Se single crystals. Analysis of the dark resistivity measurements revealed the presence of one level with activation energy of 0.10 eV. Current voltage characteristics showed that both ohmic and SCL characters exhibit in 180-300 K range. Analysis of the experimental data in the SCL region resulted with a trap level at 0.11 eV above the valence band. Photoconductivity measurements were performed at different light intensities in the temperature range of 150-300 K. Behavior of the recombination mechanism in the crystal was brought out as sublinear recombination from the dependence of photocurrent on illumination intensity. Moreover, obtained activation energies were compared with the results of other experimental techniques applied to Ga0.75In0.25Se crystals in literature. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
