The long-wavelength edge of the fundamental absorption band of thin Y2O3 films obtained by radiofrequency ion-plasma sputtering is investigated. The edge of interband absorption after annealing of the films in an atmosphere of argon, oxygen, or a mixture of these gases is shown to be approximated well by the Urbach empirical rule. Diffractograms of the obtained films were studied and a model of a heavily doped or defective semiconductor in the quasi-classical approximation was used to analyze the experimental results. This model allows determining the radius of the basic electronic state, the screening radius, and the rootmean-square potential depending on the sputtering atmosphere.

Ellipsometric investigation of the optical properties of YFe2 and TbFe2 intermetalic compounds have been carried out in wavelength range of 0.22 –15 μm. A number of electronic and spectral characteristic was determined. Nature of interband light absorption in these materials is discussed on base of comparative analyses of experimental and theoretical optical conductivity spectra. Experimental optical conductivities of the compounds are shown to conform qualitatively to spectra calculated from densities of electronic states in the region of quantum electron transitions.
