Cu6PS5Br crystals grown with a chemical vapour transport technique are
implanted with sulphur ions. Optical absorption edge for the implanted
crystals is studied in the temperature range of 77–320 K. Temperature
dependences of the optical pseudogap and the Urbach energy are analysed.
The parameters of exciton-phonon interaction resulting from the Urbach
behaviour of the optical absorption edge are determined. Ordering-disordering
processes in Cu6PS5Br crys-tals induced by the ion implantation are studied.

phase transitions, Urbach absorption edge, structural disorder
