In this work, SnS1−xSex ternary nanobelts were synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method without the assistance of surfactants. The structure, morphology, microstructure, compositions, chemical valences, phonon modes, and optical band gaps of the SnS1−xSex nanobelts were characterized in detail. The results indicate that the SnS1−xSex nanobelts have uniform one-dimensional morphology and are single crystals with high crystallinity. Se is incorporated into the SnS lattice to substitute for S-forming ternary SnS1−xSex alloy. With the increase of Se doping concentration, the optical band gaps of the nanobelts gradually decrease from 1.15 to 1.01 eV, confirming the tunable optical property achieved here.

In this study, the effect of spinach-ferredoxin addition in chitosan matrix towards optical band gap was investigated. 5 distinct solutions were prepared by blending chitosan and spinach-ferredoxin (Cs-Fdx) with the volume to volume ratios of 100:0, 95:5, 90:10, 85:15 and 80:20 respectively. The solutions were cast into film via spin coating technique. The optical properties in terms of absorbance for these films were investigated using UV-Vis Spectrometer. UV-Vis result showed that the absorbance increased as the spinach-ferredoxin content increases. Finally, the optical band gaps of the films were determined by extrapolating a straight line of (αhν)2vs. hν curves. Band gap value of 3.48 eV, 3.25 eV, 3.2 eV, 3.0 eV, and 2.8 eV were observed for (Cs-Fdx) films with 100:0, 95:5, 90:10, 85:15 and 80:20 respectively.

Processes of e-beam and holographic recording of surface-relief structures using Ge5As37S58–Se multilayer nanostructures as registering media were studied in this paper. Optical properties of Ge5As37S58, Se layers and Ge5As37S58–Se multilayer nanostructures were investigated. Spectral dependencies of refractive index were analyzed within the frames of single-oscillator model. Values of optical band gaps for Ge5As37S58, Se layers and Ge5As37S58–Se multilayer nanostructures were obtained from Tauc dependencies. Holographic recording process depends on the polarization of the recording beams. Using e-beam and holographic recording diffraction gratings and other elements were recorded in Ge5As37S58–Se multilayer nanostructures.

Abstract In this paper we report results from optical transmittance spectroscopy complemented with data from Raman scattering measurements to determine optical properties of two series of silicon based bilayers deposited by PECVD on glass substrate (intrinsic a-Si:H/p-type a-SiC:H and n-type mc-Si:H/intrinsic a-Si:H). These samples represent segments of common p-i-n thin film amorphous silicon solar cells with intrinsic hydrogenated silicon (a-Si:H) as the solar absorber. The members of the series differ by the KCN treatment conditions. Dispersive and absorptive optical properties – refractive indices, absorption coefficients and optical band gaps were determined from transmittance spectra. Each bilayer was considered as one effective thin film the optical properties of which can be regarded as effective optical properties of the bilayer structure. After KCN treatments refractive indices were modified probably due to the structural changes of bilayers. Moreover the effect of the solvent used in KCN solutions was recognized. Optical band gaps calculated either by the Tauc procedure or determined as iso-absorption levels were found to be only slightly KCN treatment dependent.

Zinc doped nanoceria powders were prepared by a simple and fast microwave induced combustion method using cerium nitrate, zinc nitrate, glycine and sorbitol. The resultant powders were examined for their structure and microstructure by XRD, SEM, TEM and their optical properties were measured by UV-Vis spectroscopy. The lattice parameter of the ceria powders was found in the range of 5.399 Å to 5.370 Å. The average crystallite size calculated from XRD was in the range ~ 4 nm to ~ 2.5 nm. The TEM selected area diffraction pattern images clearly showed the ring pattern indicated the powders were polycrystalline nature and there is agglomeration of the particles. Optical band gaps of the powders were in the range 2.71eV to 2.58eV.
