✦ Synopsis
We report on first-order micro-Raman and resonant micro-Raman scattering measurements on c-In x Ga 1Àx N (0 x 0X31) epitaxial layers. We have found that both, the transverse-optical (TO) and longitudinal-optical (LO) phonons of In x Ga 1Àx N alloy exhibit a one-mode-type behavior. Their frequencies at G lie on straight lines connecting the corresponding values obtained for the c-GaN and c-InN binary compounds. Evidence for phase separation is shown in the sample with the alloy composition x = 0.31. The Raman spectra, with excitation energy close to 2.4 eV, show an enhanced additional peak, with frequency between the values found for the LO and TO phonon modes of the c-In 0.31 Ga 0.69 N epitaxial layer. We ascribed this peak to the LO phonon mode of a minority phase with In content of %0.80.
