Abstract
The spectra of transmission and reflection are measured in the region of 0.4–2.5 µm on thin silver selenium indate films obtained by means of pulse laser vaporization. The magnitudes of the refractive index and absorption coefficient are calculated. The energies of interband transitions and the values of crystalline and spin-orbit splitting are determined. The experimental results for the AgInSe2 films agree with the data for bulk crystals.
