Negative thermal expansion and electronic structure variation of chalcopyrite type LiGaTe2

Abstract: The LiGaTe2 crystals were grown by the Bridgman–Stockbarger technique and the cell parameter dependence on temperature in the range of 303–563 K was evaluated by the X-ray diffraction analysis and first principles calculations.

“…This work is aimed at the systemic study, by computer modeling methods, of the behavior of the vibrational spectra of simple and double metal carbonates under pressure. Previously, such combined approach was successfully applied for the exploration of structural, electronic and spectroscopic characteristics of crystal materials related to different chemical classes [ 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 ]. The main regularities of changes in the parameters of the vibrational modes, the quantitative dependences of the wavenumbers on pressure and structural parameters of carbonates, as well as the possibility of determining the structural characteristics from the known wavenumber shifts, will be established.…”

“…45 Panels 3B and 3C display the total and partial density of states (DOS), respectively. [47][48][49] In Figure 4, the emission and excitation spectra of a typical LMN:Mn 4+ phosphor (with the Mn 4+ concentration at 0.004 mol%) at room temperature are shown. 45 Figure 3D displays the DRS of the LMN host, which exhibits high reflectance in the UV to visible range except a dramatic drop in the range of 240-300 nm, attributed to the transition from valence to conduction band.…”

“…As DFT calculation may underestimate the bandgap more or less, so the experimental value of bandgap corresponds reasonably with the calculated value. [47][48][49] In Figure 4, the emission and excitation spectra of a typical LMN:Mn 4+ phosphor (with the Mn 4+ concentration at 0.004 mol%) at room temperature are shown. The PLE spectrum consists of two excitation bands ranging from 250 to 550 nm, which can be decomposed into four Gaussian sub-bands peaking at 295 nm, 342 nm, 399 nm, and 474 nm, corresponding to the Mn 4+ -O 2− charge transfer band (CTB) and the transitions from the Mn 4+ ground state of 4 A 2g to the excited states ( 4 T 1g , 2 T 2g and 4 T 2g ).…”

“…The silver chalcogenides are promising superionic semiconductors with low heat conductivity of the lattice as the Ag 2 Se-Ho 2 Se 3 compound [28]. The high potential of LiGaTe 2 for the optical frequency conversion in the mid-IR spectral range has been demonstrated in several studies [29]. These results indicate that LiGaTe 2 , besides its wellknown pronounced linear and nonlinear optical properties in IR spectral range, possesses the specific structural effects.…”
