Abstract. The projective representations of the wavevector group were applied to the
analysis of exciton-phonon transitions in enantiomorphous tetragonal crystals ZnP2 and
CdP2. Selection rules for indirect transitions were derived. Using pk
rr -method, the
different points in the Brillouin zone were examined to identify zero slopes and
extremums of the dispersion curves kE )(
r . Photoluminescence and edge absorption
polarized spectra were interpreted taking into account the results of above theoretical
analysis.
Keywords: projective representations, exciton-phonon transitions, α-ZnP2, CdP2.
