On the compositional dependence of the optical gap in amorphous semiconducting alloys
TL;DR: In this article, the optical gap for amorphous A-B alloys can be determined by the energy gap EA for element A and EAB for the element B in the equation EAB(Y) = YEA + (1−Y) EB where Y is the volume fraction of element A.
