SGA-25 Subgap Optical Absorption Measurement System

With using the constant photocurrent method(CPM method),this system can measures the weak defect light absorption of a semiconductor thin film that cannot be detected by general transmission spectroscopy. The system is ideal for evaluating the defect density and defect level of amorphous silicon and oxide semiconductors. The measurement principle is to irradiate the sample with monochromatic light and control the light intensity so that the photocurrent is constant at each wavelength. The irradiation light intensity value is monitored by the built-in monitor detector. The absorption coefficient is caluculated from the irradiation light intensity value.
