Abstract

Raman scattering has been used to examine strained-layer GaSb/AlSb superlattices for a variety of growth imperfections. Analysis of zone-folded acoustic phonon spectra permit a determination of the superlattice period, the individual layer widths, some estimate of the interfacial widths, and evidence for variations in layer thicknesses.
