In this paper, we have performed a study on the optical properties of single crystals ZnGa2S4 by method of density functional theory (DFT) and ellipsometry measurements. The calculated results for the real "r and imaginary "i parts of the dielectric function are compared with the measured experimental spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) spectra in the 0.7–6.5 eV spectral region. Absorption coe±cient-photon energy dependency revealed the existence of direct bandgap transitions with energy 3.5 eV. This result is very close to bandgap obtained from our theoretical calculation.
