Article Citation - WoS: 25Citation - Scopus: 25Temperature-Tuned Band Gap Properties of Mos2 Thin Films(Elsevier, 2020) Surucu, O.; Isik, M.; Gasanly, N. M.; Terlemezoglu, M.; Parlak, M.MoS2 is one of the fascinating members of transition metal dichalcogenides and has attracted great attention due to its various optoelectronic device applications and its characteristic as two-dimensional material. The present paper reports the structural and temperature tuned optical properties of MoS2 thin films grown by RF magnetron sputtering technique. It was observed that the atomic composition ratio of Mo:S was nearly equal to 1:2 and the deposited thin films have hexagonal crystalline structure exhibiting Raman peaks around 376 and 410 cm(-1). The band gap energies were determined as 1.66 and 1.71 eV at 300 and 10 K, respectively and temperature dependency of band gap energy was analyzed by means of Varshni and O'Donnell-Chen models.

M.; Parlak, M.; Isik, M.This study examines CdTe thin films deposited via RF magnetron sputtering, focusing on structural and optical properties. X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and SEM assessed structural characteristics. Optical properties were analyzed through transmittance measurements from 10 to 300 K. Tauc plots and Varshni modeling revealed a temperature-dependent bandgap, increasing from 1.49 eV at room temperature to 1.57 eV at 10 K. Urbach energy rose from 82.7 to 93.7 meV with temperature. These results are essential for applications where temperature affects CdTe-based device performance.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 3Temperature-dependent material characterization of CuZnSe2 thin films(Elsevier Science Sa, 2020) 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.
