MAX-phase Partial Optical Properties

The optical and electrical properties of MAX-phase materials have been thoroughly studied in the past. We present here a new technique to determine and study the partial contributions to the optical properties. Following the same methodology as the decomposition of the density of states to the partial density of states, we have decomposed the optical properties into the partial optical properties. Using this technique the differences of elemental and layer resolved optical properties are displayed for both the 211 and 312 phase of TiSiC and TiAlC MAX-phase materials.
