Embedded cluster samples Ge:CaF₂ and Sn:CaF₂ with different sizes less than 8nm were produced and their optical properties were examined. Electron diffraction reveals that the clusters' structures are crystallites and compared with the bulk Germanium and Stannum, lattice constants expand about 4.7% in the case of Ge:CaF₂ and 5.2% of Sn:CaF₂. Optical absorption and photoluminescence spectra of these samples show good agreement with the Quantum-Confinement-Effect(QCE) theory. With the decreasing of the cluster's size, the energy gap broadens and the absorption edge blueshift is observed, and the absorption edge also shifts with the changing of the fraction of Sn and Ge. The XPS results show that in the cluster state, the binding energy becomes higher.
