Energy spectrum and optical absorption in p-CdGeAs2

  • Published:
Soviet Physics Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

In the Kein four-band model, taking account of interaction with excited bands, the energy spectrum and effective masses of electrons and holes in CdGeAs2 are calculated. The polarizational dependence of the optical absorption spectrum is investigated for transitions between bands of light and heavy holes. The results are compared with experimental data.
