Abstract

The optical properties of semiconductors have been studied extensively for their relevance to applications such as lasers, light-emitting diodes, and solar cells. They are also important from the basic physics point of view. In this chapter, we review some of the developments and achievements in the study of optical properties of semiconductors, including recent results in nanostructured semiconductor systems. An extensive set of references and tables of optical parameters is presented. Although the equations are displayed in cgs units in the main text, they are also given in the SI system of units in the appendix.
