Band-tail states and the localized-to-extended transition in amorphous diamond.
The electronic structure of a large ~4096 atom! and realistic model of amorphous diamond is studied. The density of states and the individual eigenstates in the valence-band tail and midgap region are computed with two ‘‘order-N’’ spectral electronic-structure methods: the maximum entropy method and the shifted Lanczos method. We observe approximately exponential band tails at both valenceand c...
متن کاملPhotoluminescence and Esr Studies of Localized States in Amorphous Phosphorus
Photoluminescence and electron spin resonance measurements have been performed in bulk a-red P. We observe a photoluminescence band at 1.40 eV which exhibits a sensitivity to the excitation energy employed. Specifically, the peak of this band progresses to lower energies for higher energy excitation. Electron spin resonance measurements indicate -lo1? spins/cm3 for "cold dark" and optically ind...
متن کاملOptical Dlts Measurements of Localized States in Amorphous Chalcogenide Semiconductors
New combined optical/thermal method (optical DLTS) for the investigation of gap states is presented. The concentration and energy distribution of the gap states have been studied. The optical DLTS signal S(T) vs. temperature is calculated from the photoconductivity decay I(t,T). The effective levels and density of states for amorphous Se and As2Se3 films were obtained. Introduction.Recently, th...
متن کاملLocalized electronic states and photoemission superconducting condensate in Bi2Sr2Ca1Cu2O8+x
We present the first detailed angle-resolved photoemission evidence that there are two types of carriers that contribute to the photoemission superconducting condensate in Bi2Sr2Ca1Cu2O8+x. Our data indicate that both itinerant and somewhat localized normal state carriers can contribute to the formation of Cooper pairs. PACS numbers: 74.40.+k, 73.20.At, 79.60.-i, 74.72.Hs Typeset using REVTEX
متن کاملThe structure of electronic states in amorphous silicon.
We illustrate the structure and dynamics of electron states in amorphous Si. The nature of the states near the gap at zero temperature is discussed and especially the way the structure of the states changes for energies ranging from midgap into either band tail (Anderson transition). We then study the effect of lattice vibrations on the eigenstates, and find that electronic states near the opti...
