Raman spectra have been obtained from both the ε and γ polytypes of GaSe. The frequencies of the phonons at the zone center have been obtained for both compounds at 80 K and at 295 K. All modes have been assigned on the basis of their observed polarization dependence to an irreducible representation of the appropriate point group. A comparison of the spectra of the two polytypes has provided further confirmation of previous identifications of the various modes in ε-GaSe. Excellent agreement has been obtained between the observed and predicted dependence of the polar mode frequencies with phonon propagation direction. No evidence of conjugate modes has been observed in any of the GaSe spectra.

AbstractThe temperature effect on the Raman scattering efficiency is investigated in $$\varepsilon$$ ε -GaSe and $$\gamma$$ γ -InSe crystals. We found that varying the temperature over a broad range from 5 to 350 K permits to achieve both the resonant conditions and the antiresonance behaviour in Raman scattering of the studied materials. The resonant conditions of Raman scattering are observed at about 270 K under the 1.96 eV excitation for GaSe due to the energy proximity of the optical band gap. In the case of InSe, the resonant Raman spectra are apparent at about 50 and 270 K under correspondingly the 2.41 eV and 2.54 eV excitations as a result of the energy proximity of the so-called B transition. Interestingly, the observed resonances for both materials are followed by an antiresonance behaviour noticeable at higher temperatures than the detected resonances. The significant variations of phonon-modes intensities can be explained in terms of electron-phonon coupling and quantum interference of contributions from different points of the Brillouin zone.

The Raman spectra of four molecules absorbing in the visible region (SnJ4, GeJ4, TiBr4, and TiJ4) are presented. They were excited with a quasi-continuous ruby laser and recorded with a special electronic detection system. Except for TiJ4, complete Raman spectra of crystal powder pellets could be obtained for the first time. The assignment reported by previous authors was confirmed by accurate polarization studies of solutions or pure liquid. The assignment is also in the solid state possible on the basis of Td point group symmetry. The fundamental vibrations of TiJ4 in solutions are: ν1 (A1) =162, ν2 (E) =51, ν3 (F2) =319 and ν4 (F2) Y = 67 cm-1

The infrared and Raman spectra of the complex salts K5[Mn(CN)6], K5[Tc(CN)6] and K5[Re(CN)s] have been recorded in the range from 4000 to 40 cm-1. All expected fundamental vibrations have been observed and could be assigned to the irreducible representations of the sym­metry point group Oh . The calculation of the force constants is based on the concept of the generalized valence force field. The low CN-valence force constants indicate the relatively strong Π-bonding character of the metal carbon bond, which is especially pronounced for K5[Tc(CN)6).

The infrared and Raman spectra of 2,3-, 2,4-, and 2,5-dimethylbenzonitriles are recorded in the regions 400 to 4000 cm−1 and 100 to 4000 cm−1, respectively. Depolarization measurements are also undertaken. Assuming a C, point group for all the molecules, vibrational analysis is carried out. The frequencies of the umbrella vibration (mode 11) are calculated, and the calculated values agree very well with the observed values.

AbstractRaman scattering studies were carried out on epi Si/Si1-xGex (x = 0.1 to 0.3) heterostructures consisting of a thin Si cap layer (100 - 400 A˚), a grade-down Si1-xGex layer, a constant Si1-xGex, buffer layer and a grade-up graded Si1-xGex layer on (100) oriented Si substrates. Different Ge composition, Si1-xGex layer thicknesses and thermal treatment were used to achieve different relaxation in the Si1-xGex layers. It has been revealed that, to a very good approximation, the absolute strains in the cap Si and constant Si1-xGex layers follow a simple sum-rule that is imposed by the lattice mismatch between unstrained Si and completely relaxed Si1-x Gex. This sum rule can be used to determine the Ge composition and stresses in both cap Si and constant Si1-xGex layers. Excellent agreement was found between the theoretical curve obtained with LO phonon strain coefficient b=−930cm−1 and the experimental total strain for all samples, regardless of the degree of the relaxation of the grade-up Si1-xGex layer.

Raman spectra of oriented single crystals of KNO3(II) have been recorded at 298 and 77 K. At both temperatures the data are in excellent agreement with the factor group analysis based on the generally accepted Pmcn space group. Additional spectral features observed near room temperature suggest the presence of a significant number of disordered nitrate groups on alternate lattice sites, although the majority of nitrate groups occupy the ordered sites. As the temperature is lowered, the disordered groups freeze out until near the temperature of reported electrical anomalies (213 K) only the ordered sites are occupied. Improved resolution has resulted in detection of a number of new spectral features while improved depolarization data have resulted in reassignment of several peaks.
