The anisotropy of the forbidden transitions in the absorption spectrum of the exciton yellow series of cuprous oxide in an electric field has been studied. The group-theoretical analysis of electric field effect on transitions with different orbital quantum numbers E makes it possible t o reveal the P-, 8-, and D-series of exciton levels on the basis of experimental data. The position of dipole-active and -inactive levels has been determined by extrapolation to zero field, which enables one to study the I-splitting in a cubic crystal. With the I-splitting, the P-series remains exactly hydrogen-like, the D-series preserves an approximate hydrogen-like behaviour, and the S-series looses its hydrogen-like behaviour.
Die Untersuchung des Starkeffekts an Exzitonenspektren von Cu,O, die an orientiertenKristallen hoher Qualitat durchgefuhrt wurde, erlaubt die Bestimmung des Systems der S-, P-, D-Niveaus. Bei fehlender I-Entartung behalten die P-und D-Niveans ihre Wasserstoffahnlichkeit, die S-Niveaus verlieren sie. Das Studiuni der polarisiert,en Linien der angeregten S-Niveaus im elektrischen Feld zeigt, daB diese Niveaus I?$-Symmetrie besitzen. Die auf der langwelligen Seite der P-Linien auftretenden Linien werden als ubergange in inaktive P-Zustande des Exzitons interpretiert. E s wird eine Theorie des Starkeffekts dargelegt, die die erhaltenen Resultate gut beschreibt.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
