Abstract

As a result of studying thin-film nano-sized media, it is shown that the extended surface exerts a substantial influence on their distinctive properties. It has been established that, by using special methods to obtain nano-sized media under certain conditions, it is possible to form crystal structures with a high concentration of defects of a prescribed type in the near-surface layers of nanocrystals. The correlations found between the conducting and optical properties of thin-film nano-sized structures are an additional factor that extends the capabilities of controlling their characteristics with a view toward developing miniature effective radiation sources, elements of modulation of laser radiation, dosimeters, and components of thin-film solar cells.
