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...

The optical properties of Tl4InGa3S8 layered single crystals have been studied by means of transmission and reflection measurements in the wavelength region between 400 and 1100 nm. The analysis of the room temperature absorption data revealed the presence of both optical indirect and direct transitions with band gap energies of 2.40 and 2.61 eV, respectively. Transmission measurements carried ...

sol-gel derived sulfur modified and pure zno nanorod were prepared using zinc chloride and thiocarbamide as raw materials. prepared nanorods were characterized by means of x-ray diffraction (xrd), thermogravimetry- differential scanning calorimetry (tg–dsc), uv- vis absorption spectroscopy, brunauer emmett teller (bet) specific surface area and barrett joyner halenda (bjh) pore size distributio...

Most of the applications of the nanostructures dependent on the morphologies which affects the opto-electronics properties. This research article provides a pathway of guiding optical properties like band-gap and fluorescence properties by controlled growth of nano-rods, flowers, -needles ortubes without external chemical doping, by simple hydrothermal method by controlling over synthesis param...

Self-consistent numerical calculation and photoluminescence (PL) measurements have been used to investigate the temperature dependence of the optical Stark e ect in n-doped GaAs/AlGaAs single asymmetric quantum wells (SAQWs), grown by molecular beam epitaxy. In the low-temperature regime (5 to 40 K) a remarkable blue shift (9.8 meV) is observed in the PL peak energy, as the optical excitation i...

Neodymium oxide doped tellurite-based glass has been widely documented for potential uses in optoelectronics, but graphene (GO)-coated rarely reported. In this work, we compare two sets of series which were GO-coated and uncoated denoted as ZBTNd-GO ZBTNd, respectively. The glasses fabricated via melt-quenched process. A set was coated with GO using low-cost spray coating method. structural mor...

Titania (TiO2) is frequently used in photovoltaic and photocatalytic applications, despite the fact that its main optical absorption occurs only at ∼4 eV. Absorption across the band gap of 3 eV is dipole-forbidden in rutile TiO2. By means of first-principles theoretical spectroscopy calculations, we demonstrate that alloying with TiS2 introduces an absorption band into the fundamental gap of Ti...
