The free carrier absorptions in strained Ge, relaxed GeSn and strained GeSn are estimated considering different scattering mechanisms, namely, acoustic phonon, non polar optical phonon and intervalley phonon scatterings. The change in absorption coefficient for different Sn concentration in the alloys is also reported.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
