For this, I first digitized the received data. In the supplementary material I shared the link of, they said that they could find the nk values of the same material with the 'Gaussian-broadened Lorentz oscillators ("Voigt")' model, but they did not go into details.Īt this point, I first tried to find the best fit using the curve-fitting function in python, but the initial R square value was too high for the PbS-i material. (The brown line represents the fit taken according to the initial values entered.)

I tried the Lorentz oscillator model, but because I didn't know how to determine the initial conditions, I made random trials of initial values for hours, but I couldn't get a result. But I could not succeed in any kind of modeling of the PbS-i material. For example, for ZnO, the Cauchy fit and the data matched and the least square value was below 1. In addition, the function to be fitted varies greatly according to the received data. But the main thing is determining the initial condotions.

I need to be able to extract the n and k values from the graph created by these data points.įor this, I use the application of ellipsometry called EllyReg. But ellipsometry gives me data of psi and delta parameters or dielectric function. Halil İbrahim Çetin Asks: How can I determine the initial conditions for the fit applied to the data obtained from the ellipsometry measurement?įor thin film solar cells, I need to know the refractive and extinction coeffiecients of these materials in order to make optical calculations of some materials on the computer.įor this I had to use the ellipsometry device.
