Abstract

Single crystals of CuAl(S_xSe_1-x)₂ alloys have been successfully grown by the chemical vapor transport method. Photoreflectance (PR) and photoluminescence (PL) measurements have been carried out at 77 K. From PR measurements, exciton energies (in eV) at 77 K have been obtained as a function of alloy composition x: E_A = 3.546x + 2.736(1 - x) - 0.35x(1 - x), E_B = 3.709x + 2.849(1 - x) - 0.39x(1 - x), E_C = 3.692x + 3.012(1 - x) - 0.33x(1 - x). PL spectra are dominated by a broad emission band centered at 2.0eV, although weak exciton and edge emission (2.9eV) peaks have been observed for 0.84 ≤ x ≤ 0.96 and 0.68 ≤ x ≤ 0.96. respectively.
