ABSTRACTWe observed the quantum confined bandedge emission from ZnSe quantum dots and the size dependence of the energy states, spin-orbit interaction, and Stokes shift. The bandedge emission occurs in the UV-blue. The energy gap = Eg + C/dn where d is the diameter and n is 1. 19 ± 0.13 and 1.21 ± 0.13 for the first and second electron-hole transitions, respectively. The separation between these transitions approaches the bulk spin-orbit splitting, while the Stokes shift decreases with particle size. Effective mass theories can not explain these results. Trap emission is observed in some samples in the green and red, resulting from Se-related traps.

Measurements of reflectance as a function of temperature from 4 to 300 K have been made on a single crystal sample of CuGaSnSe4 using light polarised (a) perpendicular and (b) parallel to the c axis of the crystal. Values of the energy gaps EA, EB, and EC between the three valence bands and the conduction band have thus been determined as a function of temperature. The variation of these energy gaps with temperature has been fitted to the equation proposed by Manoogian and Leclerc, i.e., E0 − E = UTs + Vθ(coth (θ/2T) − 1). Values of spin–orbit splitting Δso and crystal field splitting Δcf have been determined and the temperature variation of these explained in terms of contributions from d orbitals to the valence band. Values of the various spin–orbit splittings and deformation potentials are discussed.
