Abstract
Abstract We have investigated one phonon resonant Raman scattering in GaN nanowires (NWs) with ring geometry. We consider the Frohlich electron–phonon interaction in the framework of the dielectric continuum approach. The selection rules are studied. For the GaN NWs with small radius, results reveal that the main contribution to the differential cross-section (DCS) stems from the surface optical (SO) phonons especially from the high-frequency of SO phonons, with a minor contribution from the longitudinal optical (LO) phonons. Meanwhile, dispersions of the two branches of the SO phonon modes are obvious when the wire is thin. Moreover, compared to GaAs NWs, the GaN NWs make more contribution to the DCS in the small quantum size.
