Popis: | The optical reflectance of Co1−xCrx for 0.12≤x≤0.22 has been measured with photon energy between 1.5 and 4.1 eV. Light was unpolarized. For atmospheric pressure, two sets of samples have been used. Spectra were obtained under vacuum (10−3 Torr) with one set of samples. Samples are in the film form with thicknesses of the order of 1 μm. Between 1.5≤ℏω≤3.5 eV, the measured alloy spectra are similar to that for pure Co with E∥c. The reflectance decreases monotonically as the photon energy increases. This suggests that the alloying Cr to Co at x≤0.22 has not changed appreciably the electronic properties of Co within 3.0 eV of the Fermi energy EF. At higher energy the present results show a minimum in reflectance at 4.0 eV. Therefore, the alloying of Cr seems to show its effect in higher‐energy interband transitions. |
