ABSTRACTRaman study of as-grown and H2O2-etched surfaces of Zn0.1Cd0.9 Te single crystal has been performed. A distribution of Te precipitates on the surface of as-grown ZCT, which increases after etching, has been encountered. With high irradiation powers, due to the oxidation of the surfaces, new bands of TeO32− are evolved. A downward shift in the peak position, as well as a halfwidth broadening, of all Raman modes has been observed with increasing laser power. The phenomenon, due to the formation of insulating oxide of tellurium in a dispersion of Te precipitates and vice-versa, has been attributed to the quantum confinement of phonons.

AbstractThis Raman study indicates that the boroxol ring concentrations for glasses in the B2 O3-GeO2 and B2 O3-GeO2-SiO2 systems are dependent upon temperature and composition. Ring breakage and formation occur well below Tg. An Arrhenius plot of intensity data for borogermanate g glass indicates that the heat of ring rupture is ca. 7.7 Kcal/mole. The boroxol ring concentrations in various glasses were also investigated at room temperature after various heat treatments. The structural interpretation from Raman scattering data was compared with that from IR data.
