Surface sensing behavior and band edge properties of AgAlS2: Experimental observations in optical, chemical, and thermoreflectance spectroscopy

Optical examination of a chaocogenide compound AgAlS2 which can spontaneously transfer to a AgAlO2 oxide has been investigated by thermoreflectance (TR) spectroscopy herein. The single crystals of AgAlS2 were grown by chemical vapor transport (CVT) method using ICl3 as a transport agent sealed in ev...
