Parameterized optical properties of InxAl1-xP alloys
Abstract:
We report values of parametric-model (PM) parameters that can be used to obtain dielectric functions (refractive indices) from 1.5 to 6.0 eV for ${{\rm In}_x}{{\rm Al}_{1 - x}}{\rm P}$InxAl1-xP alloys of arbitrary compositions $x$x. Using reported pseudo-dielectric data for several In compositions, we extract their dielectric functions by multilayer calculations, then parameterize them with PM lineshapes that well describe the asymmetric nature of their critical point (CP) contributions. We follow the ${E_0}$E0 fundamental bandgap as a function of $x$x, and determine the composition of the indirect-to-direct crossover.

Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
