The copper, copper-iron, and the silver sulfides are more complex than the sulfides discussed previously, containing several cations or cation sites in their structures. Thus chalcopyrite (CuFeSj), although having a fairly simple structure based on that of sphalerite, but with Cu and Fe alternately replacing Zn atoms, contains both Cu+ and Fe + in regular tetrahedral coordination (as indicated by neutron diffraction and Moss-bauer studies see Vaughan and Craig, 1978). A family of more than thirty synthetic compounds with the chalcopyrite structure is known, and their properties have been studied because of potential applications as semiconductors. Miller et al. (1981) have reviewed the crystal structures, vibrational properties, and band structures of these materials.

Table 2 gives electrical, magnetic, and optical properties, while Tables 3 and 4 give more details on the semiconducting properties and band structures of the most common semiconductors. Table 5 lists semiconducting minerals with typical resistivity ranges.

Specular reflection spectroscopy has been actively used in in situ studies of the formation and optical behaviour of monolayer films on surfaces, and for detecting intermediates and products of heterogeneous chemical and electrochemical reactions. The vibrational spectra of the adsorbed species at electrode surfaces are obtained by surface-enhanced Raman scattering and infrared reflectance spectroscopies. Since the mid-1960s, modulated reflection spectroscopy techniques have been employed in elucidating the optical properties and band structure of solids. In the semiconductor electroreflectance, the reflectance change at the semiconductor surface caused by the perturbation of the dielectric properties of...
