Abstract
The matrix elements of one- and two-photon optical transitions from the subbands of the valence band and the spin-orbital splitting band to the conduction band are calculated, expressions are obtained for them depending on the polarization vector and light frequency, as well as on the band parameters of the crystal. Expressions are obtained for the spectral-polarization and spectral-temperature dependences of the coefficients of interband two-photon absorption of light and linear-circular dichroism in semiconductors of tetrahedral symmetry in the three-band Kane model. It is shown that in the spectral-polarization dependence of the total coefficient of two-photon absorption of linearly and circularly polarized light in InSb: firstly, all spectral-polarization dependences have an oscillatory character; secondly, as the light frequency increases, the oscillation amplitude increases; thirdly, for circularly polarized light, the oscillation becomes aperiodic. KEYWORDS: spectral, temperature and polarization dependence, optical transitions, linear-circular dichroism, two-photon absorption of linearly and circularly polarized light.
