Optical functions of a specific semiconductor in a particular wavelength region are often
needed in optics and optoelectronics research. Basic optical properties of some materials …

Wurtzite Al 1− x Sc x N thin films with scandium Sc concentrations up to x= 0.41 were
prepared by reactive pulsed DC magnetron co-sputtering at heater temperatures between …

We demonstrate that variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) is capable of
determining both ordinary and extraordinary dielectric functions (DFs) in the transparent …

Measurements of the absorption spectra of brown natural type IIa diamond as well as brown
nitrogen-doped CVD diamond are reported. These are largely featureless and increase …

During the past ten years, the relaxation of international tensions between East and West
has resulted in the so‐called “peace dividends”. Among these dividends, solid state …

We present a screened exact-exchange (SXX) method for the efficient and accurate
calculation of the optical properties of solids, where the screening is achieved through the …

The intrinsic anisotropic optical properties of wurtzite AlN are investigated in absorption and
emission. Full access to the anisotropy of the optical response of the hexagonal material is …

Since the 1960s and the first observations of radiation-induced disruption of electronic
devices in space, the study of the effects of ionizing radiation on electronics has grown into …

Inversion domain boundaries (IDBs) are the major planar defect in piezoelectric wurtzite
structures such as AlN, AlScN, and GaN. The IDBs are often found in deposited thin films …

Based on the ab initio density functional theory we study the influence of many-body effects
on the quasiparticle (QP) band structures and optical absorption spectra of highly ionic …
