A Study of band-gap-engineering in ZrS₂Se_2−x by means of ARPES — •Alexander Paulheim, Stephan Thürmer, Mohamed Moustafa, Christoph Janowitz, and Recardo Manzke — Institut für Physik, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Newtonstr. 15, D-12489 Berlin, Germany

The layered Zirconium dichalcogenide semiconductors ZrS₂Se_2−x allow to adjust the band gap depending on the parameter x [1]. Therefore, they are candidates for third generation solar cell applications. The ternary compounds of ZrS_xSe_2−x have been successfully grown with high control of the parameter x by means of the chemical vapor transport technique (CVT) [2]. In an attempt to understand the mechanism of this band-gap-engineering and the underlying band structure variations, the electronic structure of various ZrS_xSe_2−x crystals were measured by angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). In great detail the x-dependent behavior of the upper valence band has been studied along all high-symmetric directions of the Brillouin zone. The results reveal a smooth transition of the energetic positions and splitting of the bands from ZrS₂ to ZrSe₂.
