Abstract
Far-infrared absorption in crystals of GaP and InP was investigated using a high-resolution Fourier-transform spectrometer. The two-phonon absorption was found to be very similar in these two materials. Van Hove singularities on the GaP spectrum were identified with the aid of calculated two-phonon sum and overtone density-of-states curves. The analysis of the InP spectrum was based on its homology to GaP. Many of the prominent features of the absorption spectra are assigned to pairs of phonons on the hexagonal face of the Brillouin zone while phonon pairs at Γ, X and L generally contribute only minor features to the spectra.
