AbstractThe excellent optoelectronic performance of lead halide perovskites has generated great interest in their fundamental properties. The polar nature of the perovskite lattice means that electron-lattice coupling is governed by the Fröhlich interaction. Still, considerable ambiguity exists regarding the phonon modes that participate in this crucial mechanism. Here, we use multiphonon Raman scattering and THz time-domain spectroscopy to investigate Fröhlich coupling in CsPbBr3. We identify a longitudinal optical phonon mode that dominates the interaction, and surmise that this mode effectively defines exciton-phonon scattering in CsPbBr3, and possibly similar materials. It is additionally revealed that the observed strength of the Fröhlich interaction is significantly higher than the expected intrinsic value for CsPbBr3, and is likely enhanced by carrier localization in the colloidal perovskite nanocrystals. Our experiments also unearthed a dipole-related dielectric relaxation mechanism which may impact transport properties.

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.

CdSexS1-xquantum dots (QDs) have been grown in borosilicate glass matrix using two step annealing technique and are characterized by AFM, XRD, UV-Vis absorption, HRTEM and Raman spectroscopy measurements. AFM studies show that nearly spherical clusters of about 5–10 nanocrystals were grown. From XRD measurements, it is found that the nanocrystals are grown in hexagonal phase. From HRTEM measurements, it is observed that the size of QDs increases from 5.1 to 9.5 nm with increasing annealing duration from 3 to 10 hrs. Blue shift in absorption spectrum indicates that quantum confinement increases with decreasing annealing durations. Raman spectrum of CdSexS1-xQDs shows two mode type of behavior i.e., CdSe like longitudinal optical phonon mode (LO1) and CdS like longitudinal optical phonon mode (LO2). It has been observed that with increasing the size of QDs from 5.1 to 9.5 nm, LO1shifts from 205 to 210 cm-1while LO2shifts from 278 to 291 cm-1. The shift in the LO1and LO2Raman peaks towards high frequencies has been interpreted due to increase in the lattice compressive strain with the increase in QDs size. The effect of phonon negative dispersion on the shift of LO1and LO2is found to be comparatively insignificant. It is also found that the ratio of intensity of overtones to the fundamental mode increases from 0.34 to 0.48 with decreasing QD size. This indicates that the electron–phonon coupling increases with the decrease in size of QD due to increasing overlap of electron and hole wave function in small size QDs. It is further observed that the frequency of the surface optical phonon mode remains unchanged as the size of QD changes but the intensity decreases with the increase in the size of QDs finally merging in LO mode Raman spectrum.

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.

The CdS : Ni films were fabricated on glass substrates by chemical bath deposition method (CBD), where Ni concentrations are 0%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40%. X-ray diffractometry (XRD), Raman spectroscopy and electron spin resonance (ESR) were employed to study the film structures. The XRD patterns revealed the presence of cubic CdS and trace of NiS . The Raman spectra were observed at 300 and 600 cm-1, corresponding to the first and second orders of the longitudinal optical phonon modes. Both results confirm that slightly lower order of crystallinity of CdS : Ni was found at the higher concentration of Ni . The ESR spectra showed the presence of F-type defects in CdS : Ni films. The band gaps of the samples were found to increase with the increase of Ni concentration.
