Abstract

Reflectivity measurements on graphite-CoCl2 intercalation compounds between 0.06 eV and 2.0 eV for stages 3 and 5 show sharp Drude edges and superimposed interband structure. Stage 5 shows structure near 0.4 eV and 0.55 eV while stage 5 shows structure between 0.12 eV and 0.55 eV. The observed number of interband transitions is equal to the stage index which is consistent with a recently proposed kz-axis zone-folding model of the electronic energy bands. In addition to the electronic optical transitions, features associated with lattice vibrations are observed in the spectra. In particular, the graphite-like IR mode near 1580 cm–1 is clearly resolved in the intercalation compounds. A reflectivity minimum and splitting of this vibrational mode is observed for both stages 3 and 5 of graphite-CoCl2.
