    Composition-tuned band gap energy and refractive index in GaSxSe1-x layered mixed crystals
    (Elsevier Science Sa, 2017) Isik, Mehmet; Gasanly, Nizami
    Transmission and reflection measurements on GaSxSe1-x mixed crystals (0 <= x <= 1) were carried out in the 400-1000 nm spectral range. Band gap energies of the studied crystals were obtained using the derivative spectra of transmittance and reflectance. The compositional dependence of band gap energy revealed that as sulfur (selenium) composition is increased (decreased) in the mixed crystals, band gap energy increases quadratically from 1.99 eV (GaSe) to 2.55 eV (GaS). Spectral dependencies of refractive indices of the mixed crystals were plotted using the reflectance spectra. It was observed that refractive index decreases nearly in a linear behavior with increasing band gap energy for GaSxSe1-x mixed crystals. Moreover, the composition ratio of the mixed crystals was obtained from the energy dispersive spectroscopy measurements. The atomic compositions of the studied crystals are well-matched with composition x increasing from 0 to 1 by intervals of 0.25. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Optical 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.
