M.Defect centers in Ga0.75In0.25Se single crystals have been studied performing the thermoluminescence measurements in the temperature range of 10-300 K. The observed glow curves were analyzed using curve fitting, initial rise, and different heating rate methods to determine the activation energies of the defect centers. Thermal cleaning process has been applied to decompose the overlapped curves. Four defect centers with activation energies of 9, 45,54 and 60 meV have been found as a result of the analysis. The capture cross sections and attempt-to-escape frequencies of the defect centers were also found using the curve fitting method under the light of theoretical predictions. The first order kinetics for the observed glow curve was revealed from the consistency between the theoretical predictions for slow retrapping and experimental results. Another indication of negligible retrapping was the independency of peak position from concentration of carriers trapped in defect levels. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V.

M.; Darvishov, N. H.; Bagiev, V. E.The present paper reports the structural and optical properties of PbMo0.75W0.25O4 single crystals grown by Czochralski method. XRD pattern of the crystal indicated well-defined two diffraction peaks associated with tetragonal crystalline structure. Raman and infrared spectra of the grown single crystals were presented to get information about the vibrational characteristics. Observed Raman modes were associated with modes of PbMoO4 and PbWO4. Eight bands were revealed in the infrared spectrum. The bands observed in the spectrum were attributed to multiphonon absorption processes. Transmission spectrum was measured in the 375-700 nm spectral region. The analyses of the spectrum resulted in direct band gap energy of 3.12 +/- 0.03 eV. The compositional dependent band gap energy plot was drawn considering the reported band gap energies of PbMoO4, PbWO4 and revealed band gap of PbMo0.75W0.25O4 single crystal. An almost linear behavior of composition-band gap energy was seen for PbMo1-xWxO4 compounds. Urbach energy was also found from the absorption coefficient analysis as 0.082 +/- 0.002 eV.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 9Electronic, Optical and Thermodynamic Characteristics of Bi12sio20 Sillenite: First Principle Calculations(Elsevier Science Sa, 2021) Isik, M.; Surucu, G.; Gencer, A.; Gasanly, N. M.Bi12XO20 (X: Si, Ge, Ti) ternary semiconducting compounds are known as sillenites and take a remarkable attention thanks to their attractive photorefractive properties. The present paper reports electronic, optical and thermodynamic characteristics of Bi12SiO20 by means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The crystalline structure of the compound was revealed as cubic with lattice constant of 10.135 angstrom. XRD pattern obtained from DFT calculations were compared with experimental data and there is a good consistency between them. The electronic band structure and density of state plots were presented in detail. The band gap energy of the compound was determined from electronic band structure and spectra of optical constants. The spectral dependencies of real and imaginary components of dielectric function, refractive index, extinction coefficient, absorption coefficient and loss function were plotted in the 0-12 eV spectral range. The revealed structural, electronic and optical characteristics were discussed taking into account the previously reported theoretical and experimental studies on the Bi12SiO20 sillenite.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.

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.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Optical constants and interband transitions of anisotropic layered structured Tl2GaInS4 crystals by spectroscopic ellipsometry(Elsevier Science Sa, 2013) Isik, M.; Gasanly, N. M.; Turan, R.Spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements were carried out on Tl2GaInS4 layered crystals for orientations of electric field vector, parallel (E//c*) and perpendicular (E perpendicular to c*) to optical axis c*. The measurements were performed in the 1.2-6.2 eV spectral range at room temperature. The real and imaginary components of the pseudodielectric function, pseudorefractive index and pseudoextinction coefficient were calculated from the analysis of ellipsometric data. The energies of interband transitions (critical points) have been found from the least-square fitting of the second derivative spectra of the pseudodielectric function. The results indicated five each interband transition structures for E//c* and E perpendicular to c* configurations. The obtained critical point energies were assigned tentatively to interband transitions using the available electronic energy band structure given in literature. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V.
