Abstract

The dependence of the semiconductor forbidden band energy temperature coefficient on the sizes of CdSe1−xSx nanocrystals embedded in a silicate glass is investigated experimentally and theoretically. It is revealed that the temperature coefficient dependence on the sizes of nanocrystals has a maximum. This behavior is explained by the reduction of nanocrystalline inclusion sizes at heating, which occurs in view of the more strong expansion of the matrix.
