The Zinc–Sulfide Exciton Spectra

  • Published:
Russian Physics Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

The exciton spectra of optical functions of hexagonal zinc, sulfide are calculated at 77 K using experimental reflectance spectra. The oscillator energies and forces are determined for three main exciton bands with the quantum number n = 1 for Ec and Ec polarizations. The energies of spin-orbit and off-axis crystal splitting for the upper w-ZnS valence bands are also determined.
