چکیده مقاله:

The Photoexcited carrier lifetime (τ) and peak to valley transmission difference (ΔTp-v) in direct and indirect band gap crystals has been investigated by the use of single beam open and closed aperture z-scan technique using frequency doubled Nd:YAG laser. The peak to valley transmission difference (ΔTp-v) is found to be of the order of 10-2 in case of direct band gap crystals and of the order of 10-3 in case of indirect band gap crystals. The carrier life time (τ) is found to be in nanoseconds range in case of direct band gap crystals and picoseconds range in case of indirect band gap crystals. Lower value of (τ) and (ΔTp-v) in case of indirect band gap crystals can be attributed to the reduction in the value of carrier density (N) and small value of nonlinear phase shift ( Δϕ ),respectively.

The direct-to-indirect band gap crossover in two-dimensional van der Waals Indium Selenide crystals

The electronic band structure of van der Waals (vdW) layered crystals has properties that depend on the composition, thickness and stacking of the component layers. Here we use density functional theory and high field magneto-optics to investigate the metal chalcogenide InSe, a recent addition to the family of vdW layered crystals, which transforms from a direct to an indirect band gap semicond...

Weak photonic band gap effect on the fluorescence lifetime in three-dimensional colloidal photonic crystals

The photonic band gap ~PBG! effect on the fluorescence lifetime of molecules in three–dimensional colloidal photonic crystals is studied theoretically by means of a full vectorial quantum electrodynamics. In these colloidal systems where the refractive index contrast is as low as below 1.2, the PBG-induced lifetime variation is found to be below 5%. Our theoretical simulations can help to disti...
