Abstract
This paper presents a study on the strain relaxation and phonon confinement effect in InAsSb/InP quantum dashes (QDashes). The phonon mode with a frequency between that of InAs-like longitudinal optical mode and that of InP transverse optical mode is determined to be originated from InAsSb QDashes. Despite the small height of the QDashes, their phonon frequency is found to be mainly determined by the strain relaxation in the dashes. With increasing InAsSb deposition thickness and Sb composition in InAsSb dashes, the phonon mode shows an upward shift of its frequency due to the increased compressive strain.
