Spectral properties of RuAl2 and RuGa2 compounds: Ellipsometric analysis

详细

The optical properties of RuAl₂ and RuGa₂ intermetallic compounds have been investigated in the spectral range of 0.22–14 μm. The nature of interband light absorption has been interpreted based on a comparative analysis of calculated and experimental frequency dependences of optical conductivity. The data obtained confirm the existence of pseudogaps with a width of ~0.8 eV localized at the Fermi level in the electron densities of states of these materials, which was predicted in previous energy-band calculations.
