The characteristic parameter [Formula: see text] related to bandgap [Formula: see text] is proposed ([Formula: see text] is the equivalent volume of the outermost electron cloud of molecule). [Formula: see text] values of dozens of solid media are calculated. The results show that [Formula: see text] decreases as [Formula: see text] increases. Furthermore, change behavior of [Formula: see text] with composition is studied by using [Formula: see text], and the composition characteristics of high-[Formula: see text] solid media are summarized. According to this result, [Formula: see text] can be regulated to a certain extent by adjusting the composition. Importantly, connection among refractive index [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is revealed: [Formula: see text] has both a major contribution to [Formula: see text] and a decisive effect on [Formula: see text]. These results help to promote the development of new semiconductor materials.

The theoretical calculation of the refractive indices is of great significance for the developments of new optical materials. The calculation method of refractive index, which was deduced from the electron-cloud-conductor model, contains the shape and direction factor [Formula: see text]. [Formula: see text] affects the electromagnetic-induction energy absorbed by the electron clouds, thereby influencing the refractive indices. It is not yet known how to calculate [Formula: see text] value of non-spherical electron clouds. In this paper, [Formula: see text] value is derived by imaginatively dividing the electron cloud into numerous little volume elements and then regrouping them. This paper proves that [Formula: see text] when molecules’ spatial orientations distribute randomly. The calculations of the refractive indices of several substances validate this equation. This result will help to promote the application of the calculation method of refractive index.

Amorphous and crystalline Zn[Formula: see text]CoxS ([Formula: see text], 0.3, 0.5) thin films were grown on sapphire (Al2O3) substrates by pulsed laser deposition at substrate temperature of 25∘C and 800∘C, respectively. The X-ray diffraction results show that the crystalline film has a cubic zinc blende structure and the crystalline quality decreased with increasing Co-doping concentration. The X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy spectra reveal that the samples reached an overdoping state at Co-doping concentration of [Formula: see text]. The absorbance of films increases and the absorption edge shifts to longer wave length direction with increasing Co-doping concentration. The redshift of the band gap energy depends on the Co composition associating with the Urbach energy. Furthermore, the refractive index and dielectric constant increase with increasing Co-doping concentration. The dispersion parameters, such as dispersion energy ([Formula: see text]), oscillator energy ([Formula: see text]), static refractive index ([Formula: see text]), static dielectric constant ([Formula: see text]), interband transition strength moments ([Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]), oscillator strength [Formula: see text] and oscillator wavelength [Formula: see text], have been analyzed by Wemple–DiDomenico single oscillator model. All these parameters were found to be dependent upon the Co-doping concentration in the Zn[Formula: see text]CoxS thin films.

Static permittivity ([Formula: see text]), refractive index ([Formula: see text]) and density ([Formula: see text]) of binary mixtures of ethylene glycol mono phenyl ether (EGMPE) with 1-butanol (1-BuOH) over the entire range of mole fraction and at temperatures ([Formula: see text], 313.15 and 323.15[Formula: see text]K) have been measured. From the experimental data, parameters such as excess static permittivity ([Formula: see text]), excess permittivity at optical frequency ([Formula: see text]), effective Kirkwood correlation factor ([Formula: see text]), corrective Kirkwood correlation factor ([Formula: see text]) and Bruggeman factor ([Formula: see text]) have been calculated to obtain qualitative and quantitative information about the complex formation through H-bond in binary system. In order to predict the static permittivity of polar–polar binary mixtures six mixing rules were applied and for refractive index five mixing rule were applied. Experimental results of permittivity ([Formula: see text]) and refractive index (n) are compared with those obtained from theoretical calculations. Excess parameters were fitted to the Redlich–Kister type polynomial equation.

Reflection statistics have not been well studied for optical random media whose mean refractive indices do not match with the refractive indices of their surrounding media. Here, we theoretically study how this refractive index mismatch between a one-dimensional (1D) optical sample and its surrounding medium affects the reflection statistics in the weak disorder limit, when the fluctuation part of the refractive index [Formula: see text] is much smaller than the mismatch as well as the mean refractive index of the sample [Formula: see text]. In the theoretical derivation, we perform a detailed calculation that results in the analytical forms of the mean and standard deviation (STD) of the reflection coefficient in terms of disorder parameters [Formula: see text] and its correlation length [Formula: see text] in an index mismatched backscattering system. Particularly, the orders of disorder parameters in STD of the reflection coefficient for index mismatched systems are shown to be lower [Formula: see text] than that of the matched systems [Formula: see text]. By comparing STDs of the reflection coefficient values of index matched and mismatched systems, we show that reflection coefficient at the sample boundaries in index mismatched systems can enhance the signal of the STD to the “disorder parameters” of the reflection coefficient. In terms of biophotonics applications, this result can lead to potential techniques that effectively extract the sample disorder parameters by manipulating the index mismatched conditions. Potential applications of the technique for enhancement in sensitivity of cancer detection at the single cell level are also discussed.

In2S3 thin films with different S/In molar ratios (from 1.5 to 3.5) were deposited via a spray pyrolysis technique on glass substrates at 340∘C. Then, the obtained films were annealed at the same temperature 400∘C for 2[Formula: see text]h. X-ray diffraction study reveals the formation of cubic [Formula: see text]-In2S3 phase with (400) as preferred orientation. The crystallite size varies in the range 64–97[Formula: see text]nm. Optical analysis exhibits that transmittance in visible and near infrared regions is higher than 65% for all films. The optical band gap varied from 2.58[Formula: see text]eV to 2.67[Formula: see text]eV. The optical parameters (refractive index, extinction coefficient, dielectric constants) were calculated through the transmittance ([Formula: see text]) and reflectance ([Formula: see text]). Dispersion parameters ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]), high frequency dielectric constant ([Formula: see text]), refractive index ([Formula: see text]), oscillator length strength ([Formula: see text]), average oscillator wavelength ([Formula: see text]) and optical moments ([Formula: see text]) were determined by Wemple–DiDomenico model. The surface and volume energy losses with photon energy were also calculated. The optical and electrical conductivities were estimated. These properties of In2S3 films are important for photovoltaic applications.
