Abstract
We report on the study of far-infrared transmission in silicon carbide of 6H polytype in the region of IR active folded transverse acoustic (FTA) phonon doublet. Joint analysis of the transmittance spectra obtained at low and high resolutions is performed to determine spectral dependences of the refractive index and absorption coefficient. A dual Lorentz oscillator model is used to simulate the FTA phonon contributions to the dielectric function. The oscillator strengths and phonon lifetimes for both the components of the FTA phonon doublet in 6H-SiC are determined. At temperature decrease from 300 to 5 K, the FTA phonon lifetimes increase more than six times, while the oscillator strengths remain the same.
