Low-temperature luminescence of CdI2 under synchrotron radiation
2020
Synchrotron radiation is applied to study visible and UV luminescence spectra and their excitation spectra of undoped as well as In and Sb doped cadmium iodide crystals at 10 K. The origin of principal luminescence bands and the role of impurities in the formation of emission centers are discussed. The luminescence properties have been explained based on the electronic structure of CdI2 crystals.
Cadmium clusters in CdI2layered crystals: the influence on the optical properties
2007
The influence of overstoichiometric Cd i atoms on the optical properties of cadmium iodide layered crystals has been investigated. The results of optical absorption, luminescence, and luminescence excitation studies of CdI 2 crystals with controlled deviation from stoichiometric composition allow observing correlations between the Cd i concentration and features in absorption and emission spectra up to concentrations of 10 18 cm -3 . At higher concentrations the overstoichiometric cadmium atoms form clusters, which were observed using scanning electron microscopy. The extinction spectra of (CdI i ) n clusters are calculated in the frame of Mie theory and are found to correlate with the opti…
Optical, infrared and electron-microscopy studies of metallic clusters in layered crystals
2007
Abstract An influence of ( Cd i ) n metallic clusters on the optical absorption and phonon spectra of CdI 2 crystals was studied. Metallic clusters of spherical shape were formed during the growth of non-stoichiometric crystals. Radii of clusters are in range from 10 to 500 nm according to scanning electron microscopy (SEM) data. The density of clusters was estimated from fractal dimension calculations. The fractal dimension of ( Cd i ) n clusters has been found to be varied from 1.488 to 1.793. In the framework of Mie theory the spectral and size dependencies of extinction coefficients were calculated. From the experimentally obtained spectra it is evident that the metallic clusters are re…
