量子棒及其异质结的超低频拉曼光谱及有限元分析

硫族化镉纳米微晶由于具有发光效率高和发射波长可调谐等优良性质在光电器件中有重要的应用,CdSe/CdS点-棒异质结量子点是典型代表之一。本文中通过非共振拉曼方法探测了该量子点在5~50cm-1的声学声子模,利用不同模式的偏振特性,清晰地指认了球状核壳异质结量子点的扭转模式和径向呼吸模、棒状和点-棒异质结量子点的伸缩模和径向呼吸模等,并观察到了棒状量子点和点-棒异质结量子点的电子拉曼散射。同时发现点-棒异质结量子点的径向呼吸模较尺寸相当的纳米棒量子点发生红移。利用有限元方法形象模拟各量子点声学模的振动形式,并发现点-棒异质结量子点呼吸模振动的局域性。随后,引入局域有效声速的概念,利用改进的Lamb定律,成功解释了该红移是由CdSe核区域声速的减小所导致的,并再次验证该呼吸模局域在核附近区域。该研究对于表征和研究量子点中的限制性声学模具有重要意义,声学模和光学跃迁均局域在量子点附近区域的特性,对调控其激子-声子耦合和相关的光学性质具有重要指导意义。

二维材料及其异质结的声子物理研究

声子是固体最重要的元激发之一,是理解材料摩尔热容、德拜温度以及热膨胀系数等热力学性质的基础,同时电声子相互作用也决定了固体的电导和超导等特性。拉曼光谱是表征固体声子物理的重要实验手段,不仅能表征材料的结构和质量,还能提供材料声子性质、电子能带结构、电声耦合等信息。文章将拉曼光谱应用于二维材料及其范德瓦尔斯异质结的声子物理研究。先简单介绍二维材料的层间振动声子模式和层内振动声子模式,其中层间振动声子模式的频率可用线性链模型来计算,而强度则可用层间键极化率模型来解释;同类层内振动声子模式的Davydov劈裂峰之间的频率差异可用范德瓦尔斯模型拟合。随后,将这些模型推广到二维范德瓦尔斯异质结中,以转角多层石墨烯、MoS_2/石墨烯和hBN/WS_2为例介绍了范德瓦尔斯异质结的声子谱,阐述如何应用线性链模型和经典键极化率模型计算层间振动模的频率和强度,并由此给出二维范德瓦尔斯异质结的界面耦合强度和各层间呼吸模的电声耦合强度等重要参数。     

Different angle-resolved polarization configurations of Raman spectroscopy: A case on the basal and edge plane of two-dimensional materials

Angle-resolved polarized Raman(ARPR) spectroscopy can be utilized to assign the Raman modes based on crystal symmetry and Raman selection rules and also to characterize the crystallographic orientation of anisotropic materials.However, polarized Raman measurements can be implemented by several different configurations and thus lead to different results. In this work, we systematically analyze three typical polarization configurations: 1) to change the polarization of the incident laser, 2) to rotate the sample, and 3) to set a half-wave plate in the common optical path of incident laser and scattered Raman signal to simultaneously vary their polarization directions. We provide a general approach of polarization analysis on the Raman intensity under the three polarization configurations and demonstrate that the latter two cases are equivalent to each other. Because the basal plane of highly ordered pyrolytic graphite(HOPG) exhibits isotropic feature and its edge plane is highly anisotropic, HOPG can be treated as a modelling system to study ARPR spectroscopy of twodimensional materials on their basal and edge planes. Therefore, we verify the ARPR behaviors of HOPG on its basal and edge planes at three different polarization configurations. The orientation direction of HOPG edge plane can be accurately determined by the angle-resolved polarization-dependent G mode intensity without rotating sample, which shows potential application for orientation determination of other anisotropic and vertically standing two-dimensional materials and other materials.
