10.10 Lattice Absorption, Restrahlen, and Polaritons (B)
10.10.1 General Results (A)
Polar solids carry lattice polarization waves and hence can interact with electromagnetic waves (only transverse optical phonons couple to electromagnetic waves by selection rules and conservation laws). The dispersion relations for photons and the phonons of the polarization waves can cross. When these dispersion relations cross, the resulting quanta turn out to be neither photons nor phonons but mixtures called polaritons. One way to view this is shown in Fig. 10.12. We now discuss this process in more detail. We start by considering lattice vibrations in a polar solid. We will later add in a coupling with electromagnetic waves. The displacement of the tth ion in the lth cell for the jth component, satisfies
|
Mtvtlj = −∑t′h Gttjj′′(h)vtj′,l +h , |
(10.145) |
|

and U describes the potential of interaction of the ions. If vtl is a constant,
∑t′h Gtt′(h) = 0 . |

We will add an electromagnetic wave that couples to the system through the force term.
et E0 exp[i(q l −ωt)] , |
(10.148) |
where et is the charge of the tth ion in the cell. We seek solutions of the form
vsl (t) = exp(iq l)vs,q (t) , |
(10.149) |
(now s labels ions) with q = K (dropping the vector notation of q, h, and l for simplicity from here on) and t is the time. Defining
|
|
|
|
Gss′(K ) = ∑h Gss′(h) exp(iKh) , |
(10.150) |
we have (for one component in field direction) |

Note that |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Gss′(K = 0) = ∑h Gss′(h) . |
(10.152) |
Using the above we find |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
∑s′Gss′(K = 0) = 0 . |
|
|
(10.153) |
Assuming e1 = |e| and e1 = −|e| (to build in the polarity of the ions), the following equations can be written (where long wavelengths, K 0, and one component of ion location is assumed)
M svs = −∑s′Gss′vs′ + es E0 exp(−iωt) ,
where
Gss′ = ∑h Gss′(h) .
If we assume that
U = ∑l′,h G4 (v1l′ − v2l′+h′)2 ,
where h′ = −1, 0, 1 (does not range beyond nearest neighbors), then
G |
(h) = |
|
∂ 2U |
= Gδ 0 . |

|
and |
|
G22 (h) = −G21(h) . |
(10.160) |
Therefore we can write |
|
M1v1 = G11(v2 − v1) + eE0 exp(−iωt) , |
(10.161) |
and |
|
M 2v2 = G22 (v1 − v2 ) − eE0 exp(−iωt) . |
(10.162) |
We now apply this to a dielectric where |
|
ε = ε0 + P E , |
(10.163) |
and |
|
P = ∑i Niαi Eloc,i , |
(10.164) |
with Ni = the number of ions/vol of type i and αi is the polarizability. For cubic crystals as derived in the chapter on dielectrics,

This is the Lyddane–Sachs–Teller Relation, which was mentioned in Sect. 9.3.2, and also derived in Section 4.3.3 (see 4.79) as an aside in the development of polarons. Compare also Kittel [59, 3rd edn, 1966, p393ff] who gives a table showing experimental confirmation of the LST relation. The original paper is Lyddane et al [10.20]. An equivalent derivation is given by Born and Huang [10.2 p80ff].

10.10.2 Summary of the Properties of ε(q, ω) (B)
Since n = ε1/2 with σ = 0 (see (10.8)), if ε < 0, one gets high reflectivity (by (10.15) with nc pure imaginary). Note if

then ε(ω) < 0, since by (10.210), (10.211), and (10.212) we can also write
ε(ω) = ε(∞) |
ωL2 −ω2 |
, |
|
ωT2 −ω2 |
|
and one has high reflectivity (R → 1). Thus, one expects a whole band of forbidden nonpropagating electromagnetic waves. ωT is called the Restrahl frequency and the forbidden gap extends from ωT to ωL. We only get Restrahl absorption in semiconductors that show ionic character; it will not happen in Ge and Si. We give some typical values in Table 10.2. See also Born and Huang [2, p118].

10.10.3 Summary of Absorption Processes: General Equations (B)
Much of what we have discussed can be summed up in Fig. 10.13. Summary expressions for the dielectric constants are given in (10.67) and (10.68). See also Yu and Cardona [10.27, p. 251], and Cohen [10.8] as well as Cohen and Chelikowsky [10.9, p31].

578 10 Optical Properties of Solids
10.11Optical Emission, Optical Scattering and Photoemission (B)
10.11.1 Emission (B)
We will only tread lightly on these topics, but they are important to mention. For example, photoemission (the ejection of electrons from the solid due to photons) can often give information that is not readily available otherwise, and it may be easier to measure than absorption. Photoemission can be used to study electron structure. Two important kinds are XPS – X-ray photoemission from solids, and UPS ultraviolet photoemission. Both can be compared directly with the valenceband density of states. See Table 10.3. A related discussion is given in Sect. 12.2.
|
Table 10.3. Some optical experiments on solids |
|
|
High-energy re- |
The low-energy range below about 10 eV is good for investigating |
flectivity |
transitions between valence and conduction bands. The use of syn- |
|
chrotron radiation allows one to consider much higher energies |
|
that can be used to probe transitions between the conduction-band |
|
and core states. Since core levels tend to be well defined, such |
|
measurements provide direct data about conduction band states in- |
|
cluding critical point structure. The penetration depth is large com- |
|
pared to the depth of surface irregularities and thus this measure- |
|
ment is not particularly sensitive to surface properties. Only |
|
relative energy values are measured. |
Modulation |
This involves measuring derivatives of the dielectric function to |
spectroscopy |
eliminate background and enhance critical point structure. The |
|
modulation can be of the wavelength, temperature, stress, etc. See |
|
Cohen and Chelikowsky p. 52. |
Photoemission |
Can provide absolute energies, not just relative ones. Can use to |
|
study both surface and bulk states. Use of synchrotron radiation is |
|
extremely helpful here as it provides a continuous (from infrared to |
|
X-ray) and intense bombarding spectrum. |
XPS and UPS |
X-ray photoemission spectroscopy and ultraviolet photoemission |
|
spectroscopy. Both can now use synchrotron radiation as a source. |
|
In both cases, one measures the intensity of emitted electrons ver- |
|
sus their energy. At low energy this can provide good checks on |
|
band-structure calculations. |
ARPES |
Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. This uses the wave- |
|
vector conservation rule for wave vectors parallel to the surface. |
|
Provided certain other bits of information are available (see Cohen |
|
and Chelikowsky, p.68), information about the band structure can |
|
be obtained (see also Sect. 3.2.2). |
