“…5). The width of the optical band gap energy (E g ) of undoped TiO 2 was equal to 3.13 eV and it is in good correlation with values reported by others [51][52][53]. For TiO 2 thin films doped with neodymium in the amount from 0.6 to 2.0 at.% values of E g remained very similar (3.1-3.14 eV) to undoped titania and obtained differences were within the measurements error.…”

“…According to the theory of the Z-scan method, the nonlinear absorption coefficient b (cm/GW), defined as a¼a 0 þbI, can be calculated using the following equation if two-photo absorption is activated [16,17]:…”
“…LN-H and RT-H showed light absorption onset at 399 and 392 nm, respectively. The optical band gap (E g ) was determined for LN-H and RT-H samples using the following equation for indirect band gap semiconductors [33,34]:…”
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.
