| Abstract Scope |
Optical properties of semiconductors play a critical role in various applications including photonics, optical coatings and energy conversion. The fundamental understanding of the optical properties of semiconductors has grown over the years. However, reliable data of the optical constants of semiconductors, particularly in the infrared range of wavelengths, is severely lacking in the literature. In this overview, a detailed case studies of optical properties for silicon-based structures and Ge-on-Si photodetectors, based on Forouhi-Bloomer dispersion equation, as function of photon energy and thickness are presented. The obtained simulation results with this relation are in good accord with the literature values and are consistent with some well-established relations. Furthermore, the results obtained in this study are helpful for the determination and realization of the optical response for different photon energy and thickness. |
