Parameterization of the optical functions of amorphous materials in the interband region
TLDR
Forouhi and Bloomer as mentioned in this paper presented a parameterization of the optical functions of amorphous semiconductors and insulators in which the imaginary part of the dielectric function e2 is determined by multiplying the Tauc joint density of states by the e2 obtained from the Lorentz oscillator model.Abstract:
A parameterization of the optical functions of amorphous semiconductors and insulators is presented in which the imaginary part of the dielectric function e2 is determined by multiplying the Tauc joint density of states by the e2 obtained from the Lorentz oscillator model. The real part of the dielectric function e1 is calculated from e2 using Kramers–Kronig integration. The parameters of this model are fit to n and k data for amorphous Si (2 data sets), SiO, As2S3, and Si3N4. Comparative fits are made with a similar parameterization presented earlier by Forouhi and Bloomer [Phys. Rev. B 34, 7018 (1986)]. In all cases, the new parameterization fits the data better.read more

TL;DR: It is reported that arrays of p-i-n InP nanowires (that switch from positive to negative doping), grown to millimeter lengths, can be optimized by varying the nanowire diameter and length of the n-doped segment, which are comparable to the best planar InP photovoltaics.

TL;DR: The investigation shows how sensitive the refractive index functions are to the O2 and N2 flow rates, and for which growth conditions the materials deposit homogeneously, and allows conclusions to be drawn on the degree of amorphousness and roughness.
