Relative quantum yield of the green photoluminescence of cadmium sulfide for a complicated absorption mechanism

Abstract

Because of the complicated mechanism for light absorption in the spectral range 4580–4910 Å, two quantum yields have been introduced for the green photoluminescence of polycrystalline CdS films. One of them is due to intrinsic interband absorption, while the other is due to absorption at superstoichiometric cadmium atoms. In a calculation of these quantum yields at 77 °K for two groups of polycrystalline films, it is shown that the spectral distribution of neither contains selective bands characteristic of the absorption, reflection, and excitation spectra of the green luminescence.
