Abstract
The results of an experimental study of the optical and photoelectrical properties of Eu-containing lead chalcogenides and superlattices are presented. From both sets of experiments band offset data for the lead chalcogenide-europium chalcogenide heterojunction are derived. The results are compared with the data obtained from a linear interpolation of the band structures between those of the binaries.Keywords
