Abstract:The polarization dependence of band-edge excitonic transitions in Ag(In0.5Al0.5)S2 has been characterized using polarized thermoreflectance (PTR). The polarization-sensitive behavior of the and band-edge excitons was detected and characterized by angle-dependent PTR measurements from θ = 0 [] to 90° [] with respect to the chalcopyrite crystal’s needle axis. The polarized photoconductivity of Ag(In0.5Al0.5)S2 has also been characterized using an array of white light-emitting diodes with the polarization angle… Show more
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.
