In the present work we report on the analysis of the Urbach’s tail in pure and Mn-doped Cu2GeSe3 samples having small deviation from its ideal stoichiometry. It is found that the high values of the phonon energy hnp involved in the electrons/excitons-phonon interaction in the formation of this tail are due to structural disorder caused by deviation from ideal stoichiometry. Values of hnp for pure and doped samples were found to be 48, 60 and 81 meV, respectively, whereas the phonon energy for an entirely ordered Cu2GeSe3 sample was estimated to be about 25 meV.

AbstractThe temperature dependences of the positions of maxima of exciton bands in the luminescence spectra of liquid crystal nanocomposites with CdSe quantum dots with sizes of 1.8 and 2.3 nm at T = 77–300 K have been analyzed. The analysis under the theoretical model taking into account the electron–phonon interaction inside quantum dots has made it possible to calculate the values of the Huang–Rhys factor and average phonon energy in nanocrystals under study.

The exponential attenuation of electronic absorption in spectral regions removed from the absorption maxima, the “Urbach tail,” has been observed in a variety of materials and has been ascribed to thermal and structural disorder. Here, we report, to our knowledge, the first observation of the Urbach tail in a multicomponent organic system (the asphaltenes) which is due, in part, to the overlapping absorption spectra of the diverse component chromophores within the tail spectral region. The distribution of chromophores produces an unusually large, nonthermal width in the Urbach tail.
