Abstract

Abstract The influence of magnetic phase transitions on electronic structure and optical properties of magnetic semiconductors is discussed. Europium chalcogenides and chromium chalcogenide spinels are the main subjects of the investigation. It is shown, that many-body effects are responsible for the changes of optical properties and non-rigid band behavior of electronic structure. Magnetic phase transition leads to energy shift of wide bands and change in density of states of “magnetic” d(f)-electrons without any significant shift of their energies. The influence of fluctuations at T ∼ T c and antiferromagnetic semiconductors are also considered.
