Abstract

Raman spectra of single crystal Al0.3Ga0.7As encapsulated with Si3N4 have been measured. The encapsulation is observed to alter certain low-frequency spectral features below 250 cm−1 associated with the disorder-activated mode. The enhancement of the disorder-activated mode intensities is attributed to the breakdown of symmetry selection rules by the strain field induced by the dielectric overlayer.
