Raman scattering in two Ga0.47In0.53As/InP superlattices is reported. Scattering by folded longitudinal acoustic phonons has been observed and interpreted using the elastic continuum theory. The data yield superlattice periods of 18.0 and 12.1 nm. The optical phonon energies are observed to be different from bulk values.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
