Stoichiometric effects on the optical properties of LiInSe(2)
The diffuse reflectance of LiInSe(2) between 0.67 and 3.54 eV have been measured and the Kubelka-Munk theory was used to obtain the absorption coefficient from the data. The band gap in the samples is located at approximately 1.6 eV. The In and Se content of the samples was determined from atomic absorption measurements. Absorption peaks at 0.890 and 0.896 eV have been observed which are correlated, respectively, to the selenium and indium deficiencies in the samples.
