Long-wavelength lattice vibrations of Ag3In5Se9 and Ag3In5Te9 single crystals: An inversion of LO- and TO-mode frequencies

2016-07-10
Infrared (IR) reflectivities are registered in the frequency range of 50-2000 cm(-1) for Ag3In5Se9 and Ag3In5Te9 single crystals grown by Bridgman method. Three infrared active modes are detected in spectra. The optical parameters, real and imaginary parts of the dielectric function, the function of energy losses, refractive index, absorption index and absorption coefficient were calculated from reflectivity experiments. The frequencies of transverse and longitudinal optical modes (TO and LO modes) and oscillator strength were also determined. The bands detected in infrared spectra were tentatively attributed to various vibration types (valence and valence-deformation). The inversion of LO- and TO-mode frequencies of the sandwiched pair was observed for studied crystals.

Determination of optical parameters of Ga0.75In0.25Se layered crystals
IŞIK, MEHMET; Hasanlı, Nızamı (2012-05-01)
The optical properties of the Ga0.75In0.25Se crystals have been investigated by means of transmission and reflection measurements in the wavelength range of 380-1100 nm. The analysis of the results performed at room temperature revealed the presence of optical indirect transtions with band gap energy of 1.89 eV. The variation of the band gap energy as a function of temperature was also studied in the temperature range of 10-300 K. The rate of change of band gap energy (? = 6.2 x 10(4) eV/K) and absolute zer...
Infrared-active modes in Ag3Ga5S9 and Ag3In5S9 single crystals: An influence of trivalent cation substitution
Hasanlı, Nızamı (Elsevier BV, 2016-01-01)
Infrared reflection spectra are registered in the frequency range of 50-2000 cm(-1) for Ag3Ga5S9 and Ag3In5S9 single crystals grown by Bridgman method. Four infrared-active modes are detected in spectra. By replacing the gallium atoms by indium ones in Ag3Ga5S9 crystal, the observed bands shift to low frequencies. Spectral dependence of optical parameters; real and imaginary parts of the dielectric function, the function of energy losses, refractive index, absorption index and absorption coefficient were ca...

Infrared reflection spectra are obtained in the frequency range of 50-2000 cm(-1) for AgIn5S8 and CuIn5S8 single crystals grown by Bridgman method. All four infrared-active modes are detected, which are in full agreement with the prediction of group-theoretical analysis. Spectral dependence of optical parameters; real and imaginary parts of the dielectric function, the function of energy losses, refractive index, absorption index and absorption coefficient were calculated from reflectivity experiments.

Hasanlı, Nızamı (2018-04-01)
Infrared reflection spectra of CuxAg1-xIn5S8 mixed crystals, grown by Bridgman method, were studied in the wide frequency range of 50-2000 cm(-1). All four infrared-active modes were detected, which are in full agreement with the prediction of group-theoretical analysis. Real and imaginary parts of the dielectric function, refractive index and the energy losses function were evaluated from reflectivity measurements. The frequencies of TO and LO modes and oscillator strengths were also determined. The bands ...
Infrared and Raman scattering spectra of layered structured Ga3InSe4 crystals
IŞIK, MEHMET; Hasanlı, Nızamı; KORKMAZ ÖZKAN, FİLİZ (2013-03-01)
The infrared reflectivity and transmittance and Raman scattering in Ga3InSe4 layered crystals were investigated in the frequency ranges of 100-400, 400-4000 and 25-500 cm(-1). The refractive and absorption indices, the frequencies of transverse and longitudinal optical modes, high- and low-frequency dielectric constants were obtained from the analysis of the IR reflectivity spectra. The bands observed in IR transmittance spectra were interpreted in terms of two-phonon absorption processes.
