Abstract

The results of studying optical-absorption and spectral curves of photoconductivity in MnGaInS4 single crystals are presented for two light polarizations (E || C and EC). The intrinsic absorption edge and the band-gap width of MnGaInS4 single crystals in polarized light are determined. The anisotropy of optical absorption and photoconductivity spectrum of MnGaInS4 single crystals is observed. It is suggested that the polarization splitting of the absorption edge is related to the splitting of the MnGaInS4 valence band.
