High power gain for stimulated Raman amplification in CuAlS2
The spontaneous Raman spectra of the chalcopyrite structure crystal CuAlS2, which is promising for nonlinear optical applications, has been investigated at 8 and 300 K. The main aim of this study is to compare the absolute spontaneous Raman scattering efficiency in CuAlS2 crystals with that of their isomorphous analog, zinc-blende structure GaP crystals, known as one of the most efficient materials for Raman amplification. Observation of a high value of absolute scattering efficiency S/L dΩ (where S is the fraction of incident power that scatters into the solid angle d Ω and L is the optical path length with S/L dΩ=9.5×10-5 cm-1 sr-1), together with relatively narrow linewidth (Γ=5.1 cm-1, full width at half maximum at room temperature and Γ=1.5 cm-1 at 8 K for the strongest Γ1 phonon mode of CuAlS2 at 314 cm-1) indicate that CuAlS2 has the highest value of the stimulated Raman gain coefficient gs/I where I is the incident laser power density. The calculated value of this gain is gs/I=2.1×10-6 cm-1/W at 300 K and 5.0×10-6 cm/W, at 8 K for 514.5 nm laser excitation, and is larger than those for the appropriate vibrational modes of various materials (including GaP, LiNbO3, Ba2NbO5O15, CS2, and H2) investigated so far. The calculations show that cw Raman oscillator operation in CuAlS2 is feasible with low power threshold of pump laser. © 1996 American Institute of Physics
Wide band-gap tuning Cu2ZnSn1-xGexS4 single crystals: Optical and vibrational properties
The linear optical properties of Cu2ZnSn1-xGe x S4 high quality single crystals with a wide range of Ge contents (x=0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9 and 1) have been investigated in the ultraviolet and near infrared range using spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements. From the analysis of the complex dielectric function spectra it has been found that the bandgap E 0 increases continuously from 1.49eV to 2.25eV with the Ge content. Furthermore, the evolution of the interband transitions E 1A and E 1B has been also determined. Raman scattering using three different excitation wavelengths and its analysis have been performed to confirm the absence of secondary phases in the samples, and to distinguish between stannite, wurtzite, wurzstannite and kesterite structures. Additionally, the analysis of the high resolution Raman spectra obtained in samples with different [Ge]/([Ge]+[Sn]) ratios allows describing a bimodal behavior of the dominant A modes. The understanding of the incorporation of Ge into the Cu2ZnSnS4 lattice is fundamental in order to develop efficient bandgap engineering of these compounds towards the fabrication of kesterite based solar cells with enhanced performanceThis work was supported by the Marie Curie-ITN project (KESTCELL, GA: 316488), Marie Curie-IRSES project (PVICOKEST, GA: 269167), AMALIE (TEC2012-38901-C02-01) and SUNBEAM (ENE2013-49136-C4-3-R) project funded by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness.

Geometrization of the temporal photoresponse from the semiconductor sensor materials
Geometrization of the temporal photoresponse of A²B⁶ semiconductor compounds by means of it transformation to the first- and second-order signatures provides qualitative new possibilities for the control of the compounds quality. It has been offered the integrative indexes of the dynamic and power balances of photoresponse components from sensor crystals which display the basic phases of generation-recombination processes

Growth and characterization of CuxAg1-xInSe2 thin films by pulsed laser deposition
We report on structural and optical measurements made on thin films of the quaternary compounds CuxAg1-xInSe2(x = 0; 0.3; 0.5; 0.7; 1.0). The films were prepared by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) of prereacted material onto glass substrates. The substrate temperature was about 450-480 degrees C. The beam of a Nd:YAG laser was directed onto a rotating target. The resulting films were characterized by XRD, SEM, and EDAX, The films were single phase, polycrystalline and stoichiometric within 4 %. The refractive index n and the absorption coefficient alpha of CuxAg1-xInSe2 thin films were obtained by measuring the transmittance (T) and reflectance (R) in the photon energy range from 0.4 to 2.5 mu m. The optical properties were determined from rigorous expression for the transmission and reflection in an air/film/glass substrate/air multilayer system. The films had high optical absorption about 10(4) - 10(5) cm(-1) and the band gaps of 0.99 eV (CuInSe2) and 1.25 eV (AgInSe2). The energy gaps observed in laser-deposited CuxAg1-xInSe2 thin films near and above the fundamental absorption edge exhibit a nonlinear composition dependence
