Abstract Exciton absorption spectra in high-quality β-ZnP2 single crystals have been investigated at T=1.7 K for various directions of the wave vector and various polarization states of the radiation. It has been unambiguously established that the additional high-energy A series, which in some works has been called a D series and ascribed to ZnP2 crystals, of so-called “rhombic” symmetry,1,8,10,11 is an intrinsic exciton of the β-ZnP2 series. A mixed mode has been detected for the first time, and the energy of the longitudinal exciton has been determined. The selection rules for the exciton transitions have been analyzed by a group-theoretical approach, and the symmetry of the nS states of the single exciton has been established on the basis of the experimental data — Γ 2 − (z).
