<title>Large-scale first-principles calculations of Fe-doped SrTiO<formula><inf><roman>3</roman></inf></formul…
2003
The energy level positions in the optical gap and atomic geometry for the Fe4+ impurity substituting for a host Ti atom in SrTiO3 are calculated using the Unrestricted Hartree-Fock (UHF) method and supercells containing up to 320 atoms. In agreement with experiment, the high spin (S = 2) state is much lower in energy than the zero-spin state. The energy level positions strongly depend on the asymmetric displacements of six nearest O ions which is a combination of the Jahn-Teller and breathing modes. A considerable covalent bonding between the Fe ion and four nearest O ions takes place. We predict a strong dependence of optical absorption energies on the crystal compression or internal tensi…
Photoluminescence excited by ArF and KrF lasers and optical absorption of stishovite mono-crystal
2008
Two photoluminescence bands were found in a stishovite (silicon dioxide) mono-crystal sample under ArF (193 nm) and KrF (248 nm) excitation. The blue band is situated at 3.17 ± 0.02 eV in the case of ArF and at 3 ± 0.2 in the case of KrF. The UV band is at 4.55 ± 0.05 eV in the case of ArF and at 4.5 ± 0.05 eV in the case of KrF. The position of the UV emission band correlates with that excited by x rays. This position is 4.6 ± 0.05 eV with FWHM 0.8 ± 0.05 eV (Truhins et al 2003 Solid State Commun. 127 415). The blue band possesses slow decay kinetics with time constant 16 ± 2 µs and the UV band is fast on the level of 2 ± 0.5 ns, similarly for both lasers. Thermal quenching of both bands b…
<title>Nature of fundamental absorption edge of WO<formula><inf><roman>3</roman></inf></formula></title&…
1997
The fundamental absorption edge of amorphous, polycrystalline and crystalline tungsten trioxide (WO3) thin films obtained by different techniques (thermal evaporation, rf plasma sputtering, chemical gas transport) was investigated. Special attention was paid to correct measurements of absorption values of all WO3 thin films taking into account the scattered light, interference effects and reflection losses. The indirect edge at 2.70 eV was determined for crystalline WO3, but for crystal WO3:Ti the direct edge in the same place (2.72 eV) was found. For polycrystalline WO3 thin film first edge transition located at 2.76 eV had a quadratic dependence similar to the amorphous film at a higher p…

Ab initio calculations of the Ni K ‐edge XANES in Ni c Mg 1‐c O solid solutions
2005
An interpretation of the Ni K-edge X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) in pure NiO and NicMg1-cO solid solutions is given based on three types of ab initio theoretical calculations: the full-multiple-scattering (FMS) approach, the finite difference method (FDM) and the full potential linear muffin-tin orbital (FP-LMTO) method within the LSDA+U approach. The first two methods differ in the cluster potential approximation: the spherically symmetric muffin-tin potential is used in the FMS approach, whereas a non-muffin-tin numerical potential makes the core of the FDM. We found that the FMS and FDM techniques allow rather accurate description of the experimental XANES signal especiall…
Decoupling the artificial special pair to slow down the rate of singlet energy transfer
2012
Trimer 2, composed of a cofacial heterobismacrocycle, octamethyl-porphyrin zinc(II) and bisarylporphyrin zinc(II) held by an anthracenyl spacer, and a flanking acceptor, bisarylporphyrin free-base ( Ar = -3,5-(t Bu )2 C 6 H 3), has been studied by means of absorption spectroscopy, "steady state and time-resolved fluorescence" and fs transient absorption spectroscopy, and density functional theory (DFT) in order to assess the effect of decoupling the chromophores' low energy MOs on the rate of the singlet, S1, energy transfer, k ET , compared to a recently reported work on a heavily coupled trimeric system, Trimer 1, [biphenylenebis(n-nonyl)porphyrin zinc(II)]-bisarylporphyrin free-base ( A…
EXAFS study of the local structure of crystalline and nanocrystalline Y2O3using evolutionary algorithm method
2015
Temperature-dependent local structure and lattice dynamics of yttria (Y2O3) were studied by X-ray absorption spectroscopy. Novel method, which combines the reverse Monte Carlo and evolutionary algorithm techniques, was applied for the analysis of extended X-ray absorption fine structure at the Y K-edge. This approach allowed us to reconstruct 3D atomic structure models of crystalline and nanocrystalline Y2O3.
HgGa2 Se4 under high pressure: An optical absorption study
2015
High-pressure optical absorption measurements have been performed in defect chalcopyrite HgGa2Se4 to investigate the influence of pressure on the bandgap energy and its relation with the pressure-induced order–disorder processes that occur in this ordered-vacancy compound. Two different experiments have been carried out in which the sample undergoes either a partial or a total pressure-induced disorder process at 15.4 and 30.8 GPa, respectively. It has been found that the direct bandgap energies of the recovered samples at 1 GPa were around 0.15 and 0.23 eV smaller than that of the original sample, respectively, and that both recovered samples have different pressure coefficients of the dir…
INFLUENCE OF THE ANODIZATION CONDITIONS ON THE ELECTRONIC PROPERTIES AND CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC STRUCTURES OF THE CORROSION LAYERS ON TUNGSTEN. A PHOTOELEC…
1983
ABSTRACT The influence of morphology, composition and crystallographic structure on the photoelectrochemical behaviour of anodic oxide films on tungsten obtained in various conditions of anodization has been investigated. Different photocurrent spectra and absorption edges were obtained for each type of film. Optical band gaps ranging between 2.55 eV and 3.15 eV were determined for crystalline and amorphous WO 3 films grown in different conditions. The low quantum efficiency of the anodic films must be attributed to the presence of an amorphous (a-W0 3 ) film which controls the transport of the injected photocarriers.
Colour centres in LiBaF3 crystals
1998
Abstract The origin of the absorption bands in LiBaF 3 created by X-ray irradiation at RT has been investigated. It is found that three absorption bands at 270, 320 and 430 nm represent different electron transitions within a radiation defect effectively created in LiBaF 3 single crystals. Following the Mollwo–Ivey relation we discuss investigations of optical dichroism, magnetic optical dichroism, as well as the assumptions regarding the accumulation kinetics of these absorption bands, the F centre being the main radiation defect created by X-rays in undoped LiBaF 3 crystals at RT.
