1 Metals Lecture 3: Optical Properties of Insulators, Semiconductors, and Metals 5 nm
2 Course Info Next Week (Sept. 5 and 7) no classes First H/W is due Sept. 1
3 The Previous Lecture Origin frequency dependence of χ in real materials Lorentz model (harmonic oscillator model) 0 e - n ( ) n ' n '' n ' = 1 + Nucleus Today optical properties of materials Insulators (Lattice absorption, color centers ) Semiconductors (Energy bands, Urbach tail, excitons ) 0 Metals (Response due to bound and free electrons, plasma oscillations.. ) Optical properties of molecules, nanoparticles, and microparticles
4 Classification Matter: Insulators, Semiconductors, Metals onds and bands One atom, e.g. H. Schrödinger equation: H + E Two atoms: bond formation H +? + H Every electron contributes one state Equilibrium distance d (after reaction)
5 Classification Matter ~ 1 ev Pauli principle: Only electrons in the same electronic state (one spin & one spin )
6 Atoms with many electrons Classification Matter Empty outer orbitals Partly filled valence orbitals Outermost electrons interact Form bands Energy Filled Inner shells Electrons in inner shells do not interact Do not form bands Distance between atoms
7 Classification Matter Insulators, semiconductors, and metals Classification based on bandstructure
8 Dispersion and Absorption in Insulators Electronic transitions No transitions Atomic vibrations
9 Refractive Index Various Materials 3.4 Refractive index: n λ (µm)
10 Color Centers Insulators with a large E GAP should not show absorption..or? Ion beam irradiation or x-ray exposure result in beautiful colors Due to formation of color (absorption) centers.(homework assignment)
11 Absorption Processes in Semiconductors Absorption spectrum of a typical semiconductor E E C Phonon Photon E V Phonon
12 Excitons: Electron and Hole ound by Coulomb Analogy with H-atom Electron orbit around a hole is similar to the electron orbit around a H-core 1913 Niels ohr: Electron restricted to well-defined orbits n = ev + n = -3.4 ev n = ev inding energy electron: Where: m e = Electron mass, ε 0 = permittivity of vacuum, n = energy quantum number/orbit identifier E 4 mee 13.6 = # = # ev, n = 1,,3,... ( 4" 0hn) n h = Planck s constant
13 inding Energy of an Electron to Hole Electron orbit around a hole Electron orbit is expected to be qualitatively similar to a H-atom. Use reduced effective mass instead of m e : * 1/ = 1/ e + 1/ m m m Correct for the relative dielectric constant of Si, ε r,si (screening). h e - ε r,si h - inding energy electron: E Typical value for semiconductors: * m = ev, n = 1,,3,... m e E = 10meV 100meV Note: Exciton ohr radius ~ 5 nm (many lattice constants)
14 Optical Properties of Metals (determine ε) Current induced by a time varying field Consider a time varying field: Equation of motion electron in a metal: E { } ( t) = Re E( ) exp( " i t) d x dv v m = m = " m " ee dt dt relaxation time ~ s { } Look for a steady state solution: v( t) = Re v( ) exp( " i t) Substitution v into Eq. of motion: i mv( ) This can be manipulated into: The current density is defined as: J( ) = " ne It thus follows: J( ) ( ) mv # = # # ee " ( # e v ) = E m 1 " # i ( ) ( ) v Electron density ( ne m) = E ( ) ( ) 1 " # i ( )
