Near-forward Raman study of a phonon-polariton reinforcement regime in the Zn(Se,S) alloy
Abstract
We investigate by near-forward Raman scattering a presumed reinforcement of the (A-C,B-C)-mixed phonon-polariton of a A(1-x)B(x)C zincblende alloy when entering its longitudinal optical-like (LO-like) regime near the Brillouin zone centre Gamma, as predicted within the formalism of the linear dielectric response. A choice system to address such issue is ZnSe0.68S0.32 due to the moderate dispersion of its refractive index in the visible range, a sine qua non condition to bring the phonon-polariton insight near Gamma. The LO-like reinforcement regime is actually accessed by using the 633.0 nm laser excitation, testified by the strong emergence of the (Zn-Se,Zn-S)-mixed phonon-polariton at ultimately small scattering angles.
