AbstractWe have studied the effects on the phonon spectrum and on the electron-longitudinal optical phonon scattering in GaN/AlN and GaAs/AlAs quantum wells. Phonon modes and potentials have been calculated for both systems. Results for emission due to electroninterface phonons interactions are presented. We will discuss the implications for relaxation times and electron mobility due to modified LO-phonon scattering in both systems.

We report the relation between the catalyst patterning conditions and the intensity of the 1st order Raman active modes in Au-catalyzed GaAs nanowire bundles. We fabricated e-beam lithographically Au-patterned GaAs(111)B substrates by varying the patterning conditions (e-beam dose rate, dot-size and interdot-spacings), and grew GaAs nanowires via vapor–liquid–solid process using a solid-source molecular beam epitaxy. To understand the effects of the substrate preparation conditions and resulting morphologies on the optical characteristics of 1st order transverse optical and longitudinal optical phonon modes of GaAs, we characterized the nanowire bundles using complementary μ-Raman spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy as a function of the e-beam dose rate (145–595 μC/cm2), inter-dot spacing (100 and 150 nm) and pattern size (100 and 150 nm). Ensembles of single crystalline GaAs nanowires covered with different Au-thickness exhibit a downshift and asymmetric broadening of the 1st order transverse optical and longitudinal optical phonon peaks relative to GaAs bulk modes. We also showed that the sensitivity of a downshift and broadening of Raman spectra are directly related to morphological and surface coverage variations in as-grown nanowires. We observed clear increases of the transverse optical and longitudinal optical intensity as well as the relatively higher peak shift and broadening of Raman spectra from the 100 nm patterning in response to the dose rate change. Strong dependence of Raman spectra of the nanowire bundles on the e-beam dose rate changes are attributed to the variations in spatial density, size, shape and random growth orientation of the wires. We have shown that the identification of the changes in GaAs longitudinal optical and Arsenic anti-site peaks is good indicators to characterize the quality of as-grown GaAs nanowires. Our finding confirms the utilization of Raman spectroscopy as a powerful tool for characterizing chemical, structural, and morphological information of as-grown nanowires within the supporting substrate.
