Structures with CdS quantum dots produced by the Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) technique were investigated by Raman, IR, and UV spectroscopies. The confinement effect of longitudinal optical (LO) phonons in CdS quantum dots was investigated by Raman spectroscopy. Surface vibrational modes of CdS quantum dots were observed in IR spectra. It was shown experimentally that the frequency of the surface vibrational modes depends on the properties of the surrounding media. An average size of CdS quantum dots of about 3–6.4 nm was obtained from the analysis of UV measurements. Received: 1 February 1999 / Accepted: 1 April 1999 / Published online: 19 May 1999  相似文献

Surface enhanced Raman scattering is studied in nanostructures with CdS quantum dots formed using the Langmuir-Blodgett technology. Features due to quantum dot longitudinal optical phonons are observed in the Raman spectra of both free CdS quantum dots and such dots distributed in an organic matrix. The surface enhanced Raman scattering by nanostructures with CdS quantum dots covered by an Ag cluster film is observed experimentally. Applying Ag clusters onto the nanostructure surfaces results in a sharp (40-fold) increase in the intensity of Raman scattering by optical phonons in the quantum dots. It is shown that the dependence of surface enhanced Raman scattering on the excitation energy is resonant with a maximum at the energy corresponding to the maximum absorption coefficient of Ag clusters.  相似文献

Self-organised Ge dot superlattices grown by molecular beam epitaxy of Ge and Si layers utilizing Stranski-Krastanov growth mode were investigated by Raman spectroscopy. An average size of Ge quantum dots was obtained from transmission electron microscopy measurements. The strain and interdiffusion of Ge and Si atoms in Ge quantum dots were estimated from the analysis of frequency positions of optical phonons observed in the Raman spectra. Raman scattering by folded longitudinal acoustic phonons in the Ge dot superlattices was observed and explained using of elastic continuum theory. Received 25 January 2000  相似文献

The Raman light scattering from optical phonons of Ge quantum dots grown by molecular beam epitaxy on a Si(111) surface is studied. A series of Raman lines related to the quantization of phonon spectrum is observed. It is shown that phonon frequencies are adequately described in terms of the elastic properties and the dispersion of the optical phonons of bulk Ge. The strain experienced by the Ge quantum dots is estimated.  相似文献

Vibrational spectroscopy of InAs and AlAs quantum dot structures   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
In this paper we present an experimental comparative study of InAs/AlAs periodical structures with InAs and AlAs quantum dots (QDs) by means of infrared and Raman spectroscopies. The first observation of optical phonons localized in InAs and AlAs QDs using infrared spectroscopy is demonstrated. Confined optical phonon frequencies of the QDs measured by means of Raman scattering are compared with those deduced from the analysis of infrared spectra performed in the framework of the dielectric function approximation.  相似文献

Resonant Raman scattering of optical phonons in self-assembled quantum dots   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
We have investigated the carrier relaxation mechanism in InGaAs/GaAs quantum dots by photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectroscopy. Near-field scanning optical microscope successfully shows that a PLE resonance at a relaxation energy of 36 meV can be seen in all single-dot luminescence spectra, and thus can be attributed to resonant Raman scattering by a GaAs LO phonon to the excitonic ground state. In addition, a number of sharp resonances observed in single-dot PLE spectra can be identified as resonant Raman features due to localized phonons, which are observed in the conventional Raman spectrum. The results reveal the mechanism for the efficient relaxation of carriers observed in self-assembled quantum dots: the carriers can relax within the continuum states, and make transitions to the excitonic ground state by phonon emission.  相似文献

Ge/Si superlattices containing Ge quantum dots were prepared by molecular beam epitaxy and studied by resonant Raman scattering. It is shown that these structures possess vibrational properties of both two-and zero-dimensional objects. The folded acoustic phonons observed in the low-frequency region of the spectrum (up to 15th order) are typical for planar superlattices. The acoustic phonon lines overlap with a broad emission continuum that is due to the violation of the wave-vector conservation law by the quantum dots. An analysis of the Ge and Ge-Si optical phonons indicates that the Ge quantum dots are pseudoamorphous and that mixing of the Ge and Si atoms is insignificant. The longitudinal optical phonons undergo a low-frequency shift upon increasing laser excitation energy (2.54–2.71 eV) because of the confinement effect in small-sized quantum dots, which dominate resonant Raman scattering.  相似文献

This paper reports on the results of resonant Raman scattering investigations of the fundamental vibrations in Ge/Si structures with strained and relaxed germanium quantum dots. Self-assembled strained Ge/Si quantum dots are grown by molecular-beam epitaxy on Si(001) substrates. An ultrathin SiO2 layer is grown prior to the deposition of a germanium layer with the aim of forming relaxed germanium quantum dots. The use of resonant Raman scattering (selective with respect to quantum dot size) made it possible to assign unambiguously the line observed in the vicinity of 300 cm?1 to optical phonons confined in relaxed germanium quantum dots. The influence of confinement effects and mechanical stresses on the vibrational spectra of the structures with germanium quantum dots is analyzed.  相似文献

Raman scattering by optical phonons in InxGa1 ? x As/AlAs nanostructures with quantum dots has been studied experimentally for compositions corresponding to x = 0.3?1 under out-resonance conditions. Features due to scattering by GaAs-and InAs-like optical phonons in quantum dots have been detected, and the phonon frequencies have been determined as a function of the dot composition. With increasing excitation energy, a red shift is observed in the frequency of the GaAs-like phonon in quantum dots, which testifies to Raman scattering selective by the size of quantum dots. Under resonant conditions, multiphonon light scattering by optical and interface phonons is observed up to the third order, including overtones of the first-order phonons of InGaAs and AlAs materials and their combinations.  相似文献

We have observed additional lines, shifted in both directions relative to the frequency of the bulk phonon of Ge, in the Raman scattering spectra from optical phonons in germanium quantum dots. The observed phonon modes are shown to be due to the straining of the quantum dots as a result of the lattice mismatch of the Ge and Si matrices. The observed frequency shifts, with allowance for optical-phonon localization effects, make it possible to determine the sizes of the regions with different strain states in the quantum dots.

The frequencies of the vibrational modes of CdTe and CdSe quantum dots and CdTe/CdSe core/shell nanoparticles prepared by the colloid chemistry method are determined using IR transmission and IR reflection spectroscopy. The experimental IR transmission spectrum of CdTe and CdSe nanocrystals exhibits a broad minimum located between the frequencies of the transverse optical (TO) and longitudinal optical (LO) phonons of bulk CdTe and CdSe crystals. The frequencies of the modes for ensembles of CdTe and CdSe quantum dots are considerably shifted toward lower frequencies as compared to those calculated for single quantum dots. This is explained by the dipole-dipole interaction between quantum dots. The frequencies of modes for the structures with core/shell nanoparticles differ little from the calculated frequencies. This suggests a weakening of the interaction in these structures due to the enhancement of dielectric screening.  相似文献

The resonant Raman scattering in GeSi/Si structures with GeSi quantum dots has been analyzed. These structures were formed at various temperatures in the process of molecular-beam epitaxy. It has been shown that Raman scattering spectra recorded near resonances with the E0 and E1 electronic transitions exhibit the lines of Ge optical phonons whose frequencies differ significantly from the corresponding values in bulk germanium. In the structures grown at low temperatures (300–400°C), the phonon frequency decreases with increasing excitation energy. This behavior is attributed to Raman scattering, which is sensitive to the size of quantum dots, and shows that quantum dots are inhomogeneous in size. In the structures grown at a higher temperature (500°C), the opposite dependence of the frequency of Ge phonons on excitation energy is observed. This behavior is attributed to the competitive effect of internal mechanical stresses in quantum dots, the localization of optical photons, and the mixing of Ge and Si atoms in structures with a bimodal size distribution of quantum dots.  相似文献

Optical phonon modes, confined in CdSxSe1−x nanocrystal (NC) quantum dots (≈2 nm in radius) grown in a glass matrix by the melting‐nucleation method, were studied by resonant Raman scattering (RRS) spectroscopy and theoretical modeling. The formation of nanocrystalline quantum dots (QDs) is evidenced by the observation of absorption peaks and theoretically expected resonance bands in the RRS excitation spectra. This system, a ternary alloy, offers the possibility to investigate the interplay between the effects of phonon localization by disorder and phonon confinement by the NC/matrix interface. Based on the concept of propagating optical phonons, which is accepted for two‐mode pseudo‐binary alloys in their bulk form, we extended the continuous lattice dynamics model, which has successfully been used for nearly spherical NCs of binary materials, to the present case. After determining the alloy composition for NCs (that was evaluated with only 2–3% uncertainty using the bulk longitudinal optical phonon wavenumbers) and the NC size (using atomic force microscopy and optical absorption data), the experimental RRS spectra were described rather well by this theory, including the line shape and polarization dependence of the scattering intensity. Even though the presence of a compressive strain in the NCs (introduced by the matrix) masks the expected downward shift owing to the phonons' spatial quantization, the asymmetric broadening of both Raman peaks is similar to that characteristic of NCs of pure binary materials. Although with some caution, we suggest that both CdSe‐like and CdS‐like optical phonon modes indeed are propagating within the NC size unless the alloy is considerably heterogeneous.

The vibrational spectrum of ultra-thin layer GaSb/AlSb superlattices was investigated in detail by infrared (IR) and Raman spectroscopies. The effect of confinement of the transverse and longitudinal optical phonons in both types of the layers was studied. The dispersions of optical phonons of the GaSb and the AlSb obtained from the analysis of the Raman and IR spectra are in a good accordance with the theoretical data and results of neutron scattering experiments. First- and second-order Raman spectroscopy indicates the presence of intermixture of atoms at the interfaces in the GaSb/AlSb superlattices. Received: 11 May 1998 / Accepted: 21 July 1998  相似文献

Raman scattering (including nonresonant, resonant, and surface enhanced scattering) of light by optical and surface phonons of ZnO nanocrystals and nanorods has been investigated. It has been found that the nonresonant and resonant Raman scattering spectra of the nanostructures exhibit typical vibrational modes, E 2(high) and A 1(LO), respectively, which are allowed by the selection rules. The deposition of silver nanoclusters on the surface of nanostructures leads either to an abrupt increase in the intensity (by a factor of 103) of Raman scattering of light by surface optical phonons or to the appearance of new surface modes, which indicates the observation of the phenomenon of surface enhanced Raman light scattering. It has been demonstrated that the frequencies of surface optical phonon modes of the studied nanostructures are in good agreement with the theoretical values obtained from calculations performed within the effective dielectric function model.  相似文献

Germanium quantum dots formed on Si (1 1 1) and (1 0 0)-oriented surfaces coated with ultra-thin oxide layers are studied using Raman spectroscopy technique. Some structural properties (height, stoichiometry and mechanical stresses) of the dots were estimated from Raman data. For analysis of the experimental data, the Raman spectra of Ge nanoclusters containing some hundreds of Ge atoms were calculated numerically. The effects of the resonance enhancement of the intensity of Raman scattering in the Ge-nanoclusters–SiO2–Si system were discussed. The influence of the lateral sizes of Ge nano-clusters on the frequencies of phonons localized in them was studied using numerical simulation. The influence of multi-layer growth on the structure of the Ge quantum dots was investigated.  相似文献

The vibrational spectra of structures with InAs quantum dots in an AlGaAs matrix and AlAs quantum dots in an InAs matrix are investigated experimentally and theoretically. The Raman spectra exhibit features that correspond to transverse-optical (TO), longitudinal-optical (LO), and interface phonons. The frequencies of interface phonons in InAs and AlAs quantum dots and in an AlGaAs matrix with various concentrations of aluminum are calculated with the use of experimental values of transverse-and longitudinal-optical phonons in the approximation of a dielectric continuum. It is shown that the model of a dielectric continuum adequately describes the behavior of interface phonons in structures with quantum dots under the assumption that the quantum dots are spheroidal.  相似文献

We report on the dependence of the pH value on the growth rates of KDP single crystals. Extensive experimental work has been carried out in order to find the optimum pH ranges for growing KDP single crystals with suitable sizes and high optical quality. Different techniques including micro‐Raman back‐scattering spectroscopy, UV/vis/IR transmission spectroscopy and X‐ray diffraction have been employed for this investigation. Deuterated substituted single crystals of KDP and DKDP also have been grown for the investigation of growth rates and Raman active mode identification purposes. The molecular vibration modes of the grown crystals, including internal modes of PO4 tetrahedrons molecular vibrations, external modes of optical phonons and hydrogen bonding modes have been determined exactly by micro‐Raman back‐scattering spectroscopy. The best pH values of the solution for the KDP crystal growth with reasonably higher growth rates from aqueous solutions that have been supersaturated ata temperature range of 30–50 °C have been found to be in the pH range of 3.2–5.4.
