Abstract
Temperature-dependent ultraviolet (UV) Raman scattering from AlGaN/GaN heterostructure is investigated. Compared to the visible Raman spectrum, four new peaks at 600, 700, 780, and 840 cm-1 are observed in the UV Raman spectrum. The peak at 780 cm-1 is from the AlGaN A1(LO) mode. According to the calculated dispersion relations of the interface phonon modes in the AlGaN/GaN heterostructure, the peaks at 600 and 840 cm-1 correspond to interface phonon modes. Meanwhile, the peak at 700 cm-1 is attributed to the disorder-active mode near the 2DEG interface. Due to the near-resonant enhancement effect, the intensities of the GaN A1(LO) mode, interface phonon modes, disorder active mode and the AlGaN A1(LO) mode exhibit different temperature dependence. Furthermore, the frequencies of the interface phonon modes and the disorder active mode show anomalous temperature dependence, which can be attributed to the strong built-in electric field near the 2DEG interface.
