Abstract
Abstract We have presented a theoretical study on electron resonant Raman scattering (ERRS) process associated with the bulk longitudinal optical (LO), surface optical (SO) and quasi-confined (QC) phonon modes in a free-standing wurtzite nanowire (NW). We consider the Frohlich electron–phonon interaction in the framework of the dielectric continuum model. Numerical calculations on the GaN material reveal that differential cross-section (DCS) is sensitive to the wire size. The bulk LO and high-frequency quasi-confined (QC+) phonons make main contributions to the DCS and the impact of the SO phonon can be negligible in the ERRS process. Moreover, scattering intensity of the bulk LO phonon is strongly enhanced as the incident photon energy approaches the energy band-gap of the GaN.
