Abstract

AbstractZinc thioindate and gallium thiogallate single crystals were grown by a chemical vapor transport method. The cathodoluminescence and X-ray luminescence spectra of ZnIn2S4 and CdGa2S4 single crystals were studied. From cathodoluminescence spectra of ZnIn2S4 at low temperatures the forbidden gap width of (2.96 ± 0.02) eV at 80 K and optical depth of the deep acceptor level EA = (EV + 0.30) eV were determined. In the X-ray luminescence spectra of CdGa2S4 a single emission band is observed with an energy maximum at 2.14 eV and a slope within the high-energy range at approximately 2.34 eV identified as optical transitions of donor-acceptor type.KeywordsTernary semiconductorZinc thioindateCadmium thiogallateCathodoluminescenceX-ray luminescence
