Raman scattering peeks correspond to atom vibrations (phonons) located near the #sym.Gamma point in reciprocal space,
|
||||
and the exact location of these phonons is determined by the wavevectors of incident and scattered light.
|
||||
On each site of the Brillouin zone near the #sym.Gamma point,
|
||||
there are 21 phonon modes in 4H-SiC.
|
||||
We classified these phonons into two categories based on their polarities.
|
||||
18 of 21 phonons are classified into negligible-polar phonons (i.e., phonons with zero or very weak polarity),
|
||||
The phonons involved in Raman scattering are located in reciprocal space
|
||||
at positions determined by the difference between the wavevectors of the incident and scattered light.
|
||||
At each such position, there are 21 phonon modes (excluding translational modes).
|
||||
We classify these 21 phonons into two categories based on their polarities.
|
||||
The 18 of 21 phonons are classified into negligible-polar phonons (i.e., phonons with zero or very weak polarity),
|
||||
for which the effect of polarity can be ignored in the Raman scattering process;
|
||||
and the other three phonons are strong-polar phonons,
|
||||
where the polarity gives rise to observable effects in the Raman spectra.
|
||||
|
||||
(This classification make sense.)
|

|

This classification is based on the fact that
|

the four Si atoms in the primitive cell carry similar positive Born effective charges (BECs),
|
||||
the four Si atoms in the primitive cell of 4H-SiC carry similar positive Born effective charges (BECs),
|
||||
and the four C atoms carry similar negative BECs (see @table-bec).

|

|

We propose a method to estimate the magnitudes of the Raman tensors by symmetry analysis (see appendix for details).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The center principle is to assign the Raman tensor (i.e., change of polarizability caused by atomic displacement)
|
||||
to each atom in the unit cell.
|
||||
This including the following steps:
|
||||
- Write out the change of polarizability caused by displacement of Si atom in A and C layer,
|
||||
Where unknown non-zero components are denoted by $a_1$, $a_2$, $a_5$, $a_6$.
|
||||
For example, when we move the Si atom in A layer slightly towards the x+ direction in $d$ distance,
|
||||
the change of polarizability should be $mat(,a_2,a_1;a_2,,;a_1,,)d$.
|
||||
This could be done by conclusion above.
|
||||
- The Si atom in B layer have similar local environment as the A and C layer, with only a little difference.
|
||||
We denote these difference by $epsilon_1$, $epsilon_2$, $epsilon_5$, $epsilon_6$,
|
||||
and the absolute value of $epsilon_i$ should be much smaller than $a_i$.
|
||||
For example, when we move the Si atom in B layer slightly towards the x+ direction in $d$ distance,
|
||||
the change of polarizability should be $mat(,a_2+epsilon_2,a_1+epsilon_1;a_2+epsilon_2,,;a_1+epsilon_1,,)d$.
|
||||
- The local environment of C atom in A layer is similar to the Si atom in A layer with charge reversed and
|
||||
the system reversed along xy plane.
|
||||
We denote these difference by $eta_1$, $eta_2$, $eta_5$, $eta_6$,
|
||||
and the absolute value of $epsilon_i$ should be much smaller than $a_i$.
|
||||
For example, when we move the C atom in A layer slightly towards the x+ direction in $d$ distance,
|
||||
the change of polarizability should be $mat(,a_2+eta_2,-a_1-eta_1;a_2+eta_2,,;-a_1-eta_1,,)d$.
|
||||
- Similar to the case in Si atoms, we derive the change of polarizability
|
||||
caused by moving C atom in B layer slightly towards the x+ direction in $d$ distance,
|
||||
which should be $mat(,-a_2-eta_2-zeta_2,-a_1-eta_1-zeta_1;-a_2-eta_2-zeta_2,,;-a_1-eta_1-zeta_1,,)d$.

||||

这里应该有办法来估计。下面是我总结的规律:
|

按照我们规定的 ABCB 层序,并将拉曼张量的大小归结为键长的变化的话:
|
||||
* 对于 E2 表示(AC层运动方向必须相反,B1/B2层运动方向必须相反,因此只讨论A和B1层)
|
||||
* A 层内部的那个竖的键,同向运动会导致比较大的拉曼张量
|
||||
* B1 层内部的那个竖的键,反向运动会导致比较大的拉曼张量
|
||||
* A 层和 B1 层之间的那个横的键,反向运动会导致比较大的拉曼张量
|
||||
我们或许可以通过这个路径来探索:
|
||||
* 首先,根据 C3v 点群的表示,写出每个键的拉曼张量。这包括:
|
||||
* 对于 A 内竖着的键,考虑连着的两个原子和第一近邻原子,对称性为 C3v。写出此时的拉曼张量。
|
||||
* 对于 B1 内竖着的键,它也是 C3v,它此时的拉曼张量是 h 下稍微变动的结果。写下这个结果。
|
||||
* 对于 A 到 B1 的横着的键,它是 C3v 。写下这个结果。
|
||||
* 对于 B1 到 C 的横着的键,它是 C3v 。写下这个结果为之前的结果的微微变动。
|
||||
* 对于其它键,根据对称性由上面的结果直接写出。
|
||||
* 写出各个模式的拉曼张量(上面的线性组合)。即可以直接看到结果。
