SiC is a promising wide-bandgap semiconductor material
with high critical electric field strength and high thermal conductivity.
It has been widely used in power electronic devices and has long attracted a lot of research
@casady_status_1996 @okumura_present_2006.
The 4H-SiC has a wider bandgap, higher critical electric field strength,
higher thermal conductivity, and higher electron mobility along the c-axis than other polytypes.
Currently, the 4H-SiC has gradually received more attention than other polytypes,
thanks to the development of epitaxy technology and the increasing application in the new energy industry

Phonons (quantized atomic vibrations) play a fundamental role
in understanding the atomic structure
as well as the thermal and electrical properties
of crystals (including 4H-SiC).
They could be probed by various experimental techniques,
such as electron energy loss spectroscopy and infrared absorption spectroscopy.
Among these techniques,
Raman spectroscopy is the most commonly used method,
as it provides non-destructive, non-contact, rapid and spatially localized measurement of phonons
that near the #sym.Gamma point in reciprocal space.
Studies in Raman scattering of 4H-SiC have been conducted since as early as 1983
and have been widely employed to identification of different SiC polytypes.

However, some unidentified peaks still appear in the Raman spectra,
while certain phonon modes predicted by theory remain unobserved.
In addition, the origins of newly emerged peaks induced by doping are often unclear or unexplained.

== Phonons in Perfect 4H-SiC

(There are 21 phonons in total.
We classified them into two categories: 18 negligible-polar phonons and 3 strong-polar phonons.)
// 拉曼活性的声子模式对应于 Gamma 点附近的声子模式。
// 根据这些声子模式的极性,我们将这些声子分成两类。
The phonons involved in Raman scattering are located in reciprocal space around the #sym.Gamma point,
at the exact positions are determined by the wavevectors of the incident and scattered light.
At each such position, there are 21 phonon modes (degenerate modes are counted as their multiplicity).
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 of 4H-SiC carry similar positive Born effective charges (BECs),
and the four C atoms carry similar negative BECs (see @table-bec).
In the 18 negligible-polar phonons,
the vibrations of two Si atoms are approximately opposite to those of the other two Si atoms,
and the same holds for the C atoms,
leading to cancellations of macroscopic polarity.
In contrast, in the three strong-polar phonons,
all Si atoms vibrate in the same direction, and all the C atoms vibrate in the opposite direction,
resulting in a strong dipole moment.

=== Phonons with Negligible Polarities
#par()[#text()[#h(0.0em)]]
(We investigate phonons at Gamma instead of the exact location near Gamma.)
Phonons at the #sym.Gamma point were used
to approximate negligible-polar phonons that participating in Raman processes of any incident/scattered light.
This approximation is widely adopted and justified by the fact that, // TODO: cite
although the phonons participating in Raman processes are not these strictly located at the #sym.Gamma point,
they are very close to the #sym.Gamma point in reciprocal space
(about 0.01 nm#super[-1] in back-scattering configurations with 532 nm laser light,
which corresponds to only 1% of the smallest reciprocal lattice vector of 4H-SiC,
see orange dotted line in @figure-discont),
and their dispersion at #sym.Gamma point is continuous with vanishing derivatives.
Therefore, negligible-polar phonons involved in Raman processes
have nearly indistinguishable properties from those at the #sym.Gamma point,
and the phonon participating in Raman processes of different incident/scattered light directions
are all nearly identical to the phonons at the #sym.Gamma point.

(Representation of these 18 phonons, and the shape of their Raman tensors could be determined in advance.)
Phonons at the #sym.Gamma point satisfy the C#sub[6v] point group symmetry,
and the 18 negligible-polar phonons correspond to 12 irreducible representations of the C#sub[6v] point group:
2A#sub[1] + 4B#sub[1] + 2E#sub[1] + 4E#sub[2].
Phonons belonging to the A#sub[1] and B#sub[1] representations vibrate along the z-axis and are non-degenerate,
while those belonging to the E#sub[1] and E#sub[2] representations vibrate in-plane and are doubly degenerate.
Phonons of the B#sub[1] representation are Raman-inactive, as their Raman tensors vanish.
In contrast, phonons of the other representations are Raman-active,
and the non-zero components of their Raman tensor
can be determined by further considering their representation in the C#sub[2v] point group (see @table-rep).
These Raman-active phonons are potentially be visible in Raman experiment under appropriate polarization configurations.
However, whether a mode is sufficiently strong to be experimentally visible
depends on the magnitudes of its Raman tensor components,
which cannot be determined solely from symmetry analysis.

// TODO: maybe it is better to assign Raman tensor to each bond, instead of atom
We propose a method to estimate the magnitudes of the Raman tensors of these phonons by symmetry analysis.
The method only takes the vibration directions of each atom in each phonon mode,
leaving the amplitudes unconsidered (see appendix for details),
and the result was summarized in @table-predmode.
In the Raman tensors in @table-predmode,
$a_i$ corresponding to the change of polarizability caused by movement of the Si atoms in A and C layers,
$epsilon_i$, $eta_i$ and $eta_i$ corresponding to the difference between different bilayers and different atoms.
Due to the similarity of environment in different bilayers and around different atoms,
the absolute values of $epsilon_i$, $eta_i$ and $zeta_i$ are expected to be much smaller than that of $a_i$,
thus the Raman tensors containing $a_i$ are expected to be much larger than those not containing $a_i$.

The Raman tensors and frequencies of the negligible-polar phonons were calculated using first-principles methods,
and the results are compared with experiment and theory (@table-nopol).
Calculated frequencies of these phonons are consistent with the experimental results
with a low-estimated error of about 2% to 5%, which might be due to the PBE functional used in the calculation (cite).
The Raman tensors of these phonons are also consistent with the experimental and theoretical results,
where E#sub[2] mode experimentally at 776 is the most intense phonon mode,
followed by four modes with lesser intensities
(E#sub[2] modes at 195.5 and 203.3, E#sub[1] mode at 269.7, A#sub[1] mode at 609.5).
The Raman scatter of the E#sub[1] mode calculately at 746.91 and E#sub[2] mode calculately at 756.25
are much weaker than the E#sub[2] mode calculated at 756.25 but located near it, according to our calculation,
thus it could not be distinguished from E#sub[2] mode calculated at 756.25,
which explains why they are not observed in experiments.
Moveever, the A#sub[1] mode calculated at 812.87
have a very weak Raman intensity in the basal plane (xx and yy, only 0.01)
but an observable intensity in the zz configuration (1.78).
Thus, this mode could not be observed in most Raman experiments (cite),
but could be observable when incident light propagate not along the z-direction (our experiment),
or the incident light wavelength is near the resonance condition (cite).
Besides, there are other peeks in the experiment.
The peek at 796 and 980 are caused by strong-polar phonons which will be discussed later.
Besides, there are small peeks at xxx,
which could not be explained in perfect 4H-SiC and will be discussed in the next section.

(There are 21 phonons in total.
We classified them into two categories: 18 negligible-polar phonons and 3 strong-polar phonons.)
// 拉曼活性的声子模式对应于 Gamma 点附近的声子模式。
// 根据这些声子模式的极性,我们将这些声子分成两类。
The phonons involved in Raman scattering are located in reciprocal space around the #sym.Gamma point,
at the exact positions are determined by the wavevectors of the incident and scattered light.
At each such position, there are 21 phonon modes (degenerate modes are counted as their multiplicity).
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 of 4H-SiC carry similar positive Born effective charges (BECs),
and the four C atoms carry similar negative BECs (see @table-bec).
In the 18 negligible-polar phonons,
the vibrations of two Si atoms are approximately opposite to those of the other two Si atoms,
and the same holds for the C atoms,
leading to cancellations of macroscopic polarity.
In contrast, in the three strong-polar phonons,
all Si atoms vibrate in the same direction, and all the C atoms vibrate in the opposite direction,
resulting in a strong dipole moment.

// We investigate phonons at Gamma instead of the exact location near Gamma.
Phonons at the #sym.Gamma point were used
to approximate negligible-polar phonons that participating in Raman processes of any incident/scattered light.
This approximation is widely adopted and justified by the fact that, // TODO: cite
although the phonons participating in Raman processes are not these strictly located at the #sym.Gamma point,
they are very close to the #sym.Gamma point in reciprocal space
(about 0.01 nm#super[-1] in back-scattering configurations with 532 nm laser light,
which corresponds to only 1% of the smallest reciprocal lattice vector of 4H-SiC,
see orange dotted line in @figure-discont),
and their dispersion at #sym.Gamma point is continuous with vanishing derivatives.
Therefore, negligible-polar phonons involved in Raman processes
have nearly indistinguishable properties from those at the #sym.Gamma point,
and the phonon participating in Raman processes of different incident/scattered light directions
are all nearly identical to the phonons at the #sym.Gamma point.
#include "discont.typ"
// Representation of these 18 phonons, and the shape of their Raman tensors could be determined in advance.)
Phonons at the #sym.Gamma point satisfy the C#sub[6v] point group symmetry,
and the 18 negligible-polar phonons correspond to 12 irreducible representations of the C#sub[6v] point group:
2A#sub[1] + 4B#sub[1] + 2E#sub[1] + 4E#sub[2].
Phonons belonging to the A#sub[1] and B#sub[1] representations vibrate along the z-axis and are non-degenerate,
while those belonging to the E#sub[1] and E#sub[2] representations vibrate in-plane and are doubly degenerate.
Phonons of the B#sub[1] representation are Raman-inactive, as their Raman tensors vanish.
In contrast, phonons of the other representations are Raman-active,
and the non-zero components of their Raman tensor
can be determined by further considering their representation in the C#sub[2v] point group (see @table-rep).
These Raman-active phonons are potentially be visible in Raman experiment under appropriate polarization configurations.
However, whether a mode is sufficiently strong to be experimentally visible
depends on the magnitudes of its Raman tensor components,
which cannot be determined solely from symmetry analysis.
#include "rep.typ"
// We propose a method to estimate the magnitudes of the Raman tensors of these phonons,
// without first-principle calculations.
// Here we only write out results, details are in appendix.
// TODO: maybe it is better to assign Raman tensor to each bond, instead of atom
We propose a method to estimate the magnitudes of the Raman tensors of these phonons by symmetry analysis.
The method only takes the vibration directions of each atom in each phonon mode,
leaving the amplitudes unconsidered (see appendix for details),
and the result was summarized in @table-predmode.
In the Raman tensors in @table-predmode,
$a_i$ corresponding to the change of polarizability caused by movement of the Si atoms in A and C layers,
$epsilon_i$, $eta_i$ and $eta_i$ corresponding to the difference between different bilayers and different atoms.
Due to the similarity of environment in different bilayers and around different atoms,
the absolute values of $epsilon_i$, $eta_i$ and $zeta_i$ are expected to be much smaller than that of $a_i$,
thus the Raman tensors containing $a_i$ are expected to be much larger than those not containing $a_i$.
#include "predmode.typ"
The Raman tensors and frequencies of the negligible-polar phonons were calculated using first-principles methods,
and the results are compared with experiment and theory (@table-nopol).
Calculated frequencies of these phonons are consistent with the experimental results
with a low-estimated error of about 2% to 5%, which might be due to the PBE functional used in the calculation (cite).
The Raman tensors of these phonons are also consistent with the experimental and theoretical results,
where E#sub[2] mode experimentally at 776 is the most intense phonon mode,
followed by four modes with lesser intensities
(E#sub[2] modes at 195.5 and 203.3, E#sub[1] mode at 269.7, A#sub[1] mode at 609.5).
The Raman scatter of the E#sub[1] mode calculately at 746.91 and E#sub[2] mode calculately at 756.25
are much weaker than the E#sub[2] mode calculated at 756.25 but located near it, according to our calculation,
thus it could not be distinguished from E#sub[2] mode calculated at 756.25,
which explains why they are not observed in experiments.
Moreover, the A#sub[1] mode calculated at 812.87
have a very weak Raman intensity in the basal plane (xx and yy, only 0.01)
but an observable intensity in the zz configuration (1.78).
Thus, this mode could not be observed in most Raman experiments (cite),
but could be observable when incident light propagate not along the z-direction (our experiment),
or the incident light wavelength is near the resonance condition (cite).
Besides, there are other peeks in the experiment.
The peek at 796 and 980 are caused by strong-polar phonons which will be discussed later.
Besides, there are small peeks at xxx,
which could not be explained in perfect 4H-SiC and will be discussed in the next section.
// TODO: 将一部分 phonons 改为 phonon modes

// 这个现象也可以由材料或偏振片的微小角度来解释。

// 此外,由于使用的材料是沿着 c 轴切片的,所以我们在测量 y 入射时不得不将片子以略小于 90 度(约 75 度)的角度放置。这也导致实验与计算的偏差。
