Multi-phonon Raman Scattering in GaAs/Al0.28Ga0.72As Super-lattice
Journal Title: Physical Science International Journal - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 3
Abstract
Raman scattering measurement of GaAs/Al0.28Ga0.72As super-lattice has been performed by an incident light with the wave-vector perpendicular to super-lattice growth axis at room temperature. Several peaks in Raman Scattering spectrum are observed. Theoretical analysis shows that the peak at 290 cm-1 may be caused by emission of a longitudinal optical phonon in GaAs/Al0.28Ga0.72As super-lattice, the peak at 584 cm-1 by emission of two ones, and the peak at 876 cm-1 by emission of three ones. The multi-phonon Raman scattering may be resulted from the folded optical phonons in super-lattices.

Health Detriment Associated with Exposure to Natural Radioactivity from the Soil of Ondo and Ekiti States South Western, Nigeria
The health detriment associated with human exposure to primordial radionuclides from the earth crust has been a major source of concern to public health observers across the globe. The level of such detriment can be miti...
Temporal Variations in Ambient Carbon Monoxide Concentrations between Weekdays and Weekends in Akure Central Business District, South West Nigeria
The temporal variations in ambient carbon monoxide (CO) concentration has been investigated between weekdays and weekends through the analysis of a year-long measurement data between March 2009 - February 2010 taken at t...
Numerical Detailing of the Mechanism Responsible for Artificial Heating of the Ionosphere by Powerful High Frequency Radio Waves
The effect of a standing high-power high-frequency radio wave on the behavior of the F-layer ionospheric plasma is numerically investigated with the help of the mathematical model, developed earlier in the Polar Geophysi...
Metastable Non-Nucleonic States of Nuclear Matter: Phenomenology
A hypothesis of the existence of metastable states for nuclear matter with a locally shaken-up nucleonic structure of the nucleus, was proposed earlier. Such states are initiated by inelastic scattering of electrons by n...
Effect of Prandtl Number and Inclination Angle on MHD Natural Convection in Inclined Open Square Cavity
MHD natural convection and fluid flow in a two-dimensional open and inclined square cavity with a heated circular cylinder was considered in this work. The opposite wall to the opening side of the cavity was first kept t...
