Photoluminescence (PL) and thermally stimulated current (TSC) in Ag(0.5)Cu(0.5)in(5)S(8) solid solution grown by Bridgman method have been studied in the photon energy region of 1.46-1.60 eV and in the temperature range of 10-42 K (PL) and in the temperature range of 10-100 K with heating rate of 1.01 K/s (TSC). A PL band centered at 1.53 eV was observed at T = 10 K. Variations of emission band has been studied as a function of excitation laser intensity in the 1.8-183.0 mW cm(-2) range. Radiative transitions from shallow donor level located at 13 meV below the bottom of conduction band to acceptor level located at 217 meV above the top of the valence band were suggesied to be responsible for the observed PL band. The analysis of the TSC data'revealed the electron trap level with activation energy 12 meV. An energy level diagram showing transitions in the band gap of the crystal has been presented.

Determination of trapping parameters of thermoluminescent glow peaks of semiconducting Tl2Ga2S3Se crystals IŞIK, MEHMET; YILDIRIM, TACETTİN; Hasanlı, Nızamı (2015-07-01) Thermoluminescence (TL) properties of Tl2Ga2S3Se layered single crystals were researched in the temperature range of 290-770 K. U glow curve exhibited two peaks with maximum temperatures of similar to 373 and 478 K. Curve fitting, initial rise and peak shape methods were used to determine the activation energies of the trapping centers associated with these peaks. Applied methods were in good agreement with the energies of 780 and 950 meV. Capture cross sections and attempt-to-escape frequencies of the trap...
Combined low-temperature photoluminescence and thermally stimulated current studies in Cu3In5S9 layered single crystals Hasanlı, Nızamı (2016-01-01) Photoluminescence (PL) and thermally stimulated current (TSC) spectra of Cu3In5S9 layered crystals grown by Bridgman method have been studied in the photon energy region of 1.20-1.65 eV and the temperature range of 15-70 K (PL) and in the temperature region of 10-130 K (TSC). A broad PL band centered at 1.484 eV was observed at T=15 K. Radiative transitions from shallow donor level located at 16 meV to moderately deep acceptor level located at 120 meV were suggested to be responsible for the observed PL ban...
Low-temperature photoluminescence in layered structured TlGa0.5In0.5Se2 crystals Hasanlı, Nızamı (2013-01-15) Photoluminescence (PL) spectra of TlGa0.5In0.5Se2 layered crystals have been studied in the wavelength region of 900-1020 nm and in the temperature range of 10-61 K. A broad PL band centered at 951 nm (1.304 eV) was observed at T = 10 K. Variations of emission band has been studied as a function of excitation laser intensity in the 0.15-51.5 mW cm(-2) range. The analysis of the spectra reveals that the peak energy position changes with laser excitation intensity (blue shift). This behavior of the emission b...
Near-infrared photoluminescence and thermally stimulated current in Cu3Ga5Se9 layered crystals: A comparative study Hasanlı, Nızamı (2016-07-01) Near-infrared photoluminescence (PL) and thermally stimulated current (TSC) spectra of Cu3Ga5Se9 layered crystals grown by Bridgman method have been studied in the photon energy region of 1.35-1.46 eV and the temperature range of 15-115 K (PL) and 10-170 K (TSC). An infrared PL band centered at 1.42 eV was revealed at T = 15 K. Radiative transitions from shallow donor level placed at 20 meV to moderately deep acceptor level at 310 meV were suggested to be the reason of the observed PL band. TSC curve of Cu3...
Determination of trapping center parameters in Tl2In2S3Se layered single crystals by thermally stimulated current measurements Güler, Işıkhan; Hasanlı, Nızamı (2009-07-01) As-grown Tl2In2S3Se layered single crystals were studied by thermally stimulated current measurements in the temperature range of 10-170K with different heating rates. Experimental data were analyzed according to various methods such as curve fitting and initial rise. The analysis of thermally stimulated current spectra registered at light excitation temperature T-0 = 10K revealed the trap level located at 30 meV. Attempt-to-escape frequency, concentration and capture cross section of the traps were determi...
