20. -1 the experimental absorption coefficients are larger than the calculated ones due to a contribution of the absorption band of water physisorbed in the PSi layer.
21. Determination of the free carrier absorption anisotropy for the thermally treated samples was complicated due to low free carrier concentration in them.
