Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 7Structural and Optical Characteristics of Thermally Evaporated Tlgase2 Thin Films(Elsevier, 2022) Isik, M.; Işık, Mehmet; Karatay, A.; Gasanly, N. M.; Işık, Mehmet; Department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering; Department of Electrical & Electronics EngineeringThe present paper reports the structural and optical properties of thermally evaporated TlGaSe2 thin films. X-ray diffraction pattern of evaporated film presented two diffraction peaks around 24.15 and 36.00 degrees which are associated with planes of monoclinic unit cell. Surface morphology of the TlGaSe2 thin films was investigated by scanning electron and atomic force microscopy techniques. Although there was observed some ignorable amount of clusters of quasi-spherical shape in the scanning electron microscope image, the film surface was observed almost uniform. Raman spectrum exhibited six peaks around 253, 356, 488, 800, 1053 and 1440 cm(-1) associated with possible vibrational mode combinations. Band gap energy of the thin film was determined as 3.01 eV from the analyses of transmission spectrum. Transmission spectrum presented strong Urbach tail and analyses of corresponding region resulted in Urbach energy of 0.66 eV. The structural and optical properties of deposited TlGaSe2 thin films were compared with those of single crystal. This comparison would provide valuable information about influence of thickness on the studied compounds.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7Interband Critical Points in Tlgax< Layered Mixed Crystals (0 ≤ x ≤ 1)(Elsevier Science Sa, 2013) Isik, M.; Işık, Mehmet; Gasanly, N. M.; Işık, Mehmet; Department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering; Department of Electrical & Electronics EngineeringThe 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.

M.; Işık, Mehmet; Department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering; Department of Electrical & Electronics EngineeringNaBi(WO4)2 compound has been a material of considerable attention in optoelectronic applications. The present research, in which we examined the linear and nonlinear optical properties of NaBi(WO4)2 crystal using the spectroscopic ellipsometry method, elucidates the optical behavior of the crystal in detail. Our work provides a sensitive approach to determine the spectral characteristic of the crystal. The spectral dependence of various optical parameters such as refractive index, extinction coefficient, dielectric function and absorption coefficient was reported in the range of 1.2-5.0 eV. Optical values such as bandgap energy, critical point energy, single oscillator parameters were obtained as a result of the analyses. In addition to linear optical properties, we also investigated the nonlinear optical behavior of NaBi(WO4)2 and shed new light on the potential applications of the crystal. Absorbance and photoluminescence spectra of the crystal were also reported to characterize optical, electronic and emission behavior of the compound. Our findings may form the basis for a number of technological applications such as optoelectronic devices, frequency conversion, and optical sensors. This research contributes to a better understanding of the optical properties of NaBi(WO4)2 crystal, highlighting the material's role in future optical and electronic technologies.
