RAMAN SCATTERING STUDY OF ACOUSTICAL AND OPTICAL FOLDED MODES IN GaAS/GaAlAs SUPERLATTICES

Abstract
We report the first Raman scattering determination of large parts of the dispersion curves of folded acoustical modes in large period GaAs / GaAlAs superlattices and the first unambiguous observation of a folded optical mode. The analysis of the acoustical dispersion curves gives informations on the lattice dynamics of the alloy. A Kronig-Penney type model of the whole phonon dispersion curves of a superlattice is presented
