Abstract

The lifetimes at higher temperatures on lanthanum-modified lead titanate (PLT) are mainly due to the anharmonic decay of optical phonons into low-energy phonons. The temperature-independent contributions from inherent crystal defects and from boundary scattering become comparable to the phonon scattering contribution at lower temperatures. The thermal interaction is large at higher temperatures which decreases the phonon mean free path, and so the decay lifetime decreases as the temperature of the system is increased. This leads to the increased line width at higher temperatures. We made an estimate of the lifetimes for different concentrations and temperatures in PLT.

Probing electronic lifetimes and phonon anharmonicities in high-quality chemical vapor deposited graphene by magneto-Raman spectroscopy

Journal Article Neumann, Christoph; Stampfer, Christoph; Halpaap, Donatus; ... - Applied Physics Letters

We present a magneto-Raman study on high-quality single-layer graphene grown by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) that is fully encapsulated in hexagonal boron nitride by a dry transfer technique. By analyzing the Raman D, G, and 2D peaks, we find that the structural quality of the samples is comparable with state-of-the-art exfoliated graphene flakes. From B-field dependent Raman measurements, we extract the broadening and associated lifetime of the G peak due to anharmonic effects. Furthermore, we determine the decay width and lifetime of Landau level (LL) transitions from magneto-phonon resonances as a function of laser power. At low laser power, wemore »« less

Phonon dynamics and Urbach energy studies of MgZnO alloys

Journal Article Huso, Jesse; Che, Hui; Thapa, Dinesh; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

The Mg{sub x}Zn{sub 1−x}O alloy system is emerging as an environmentally friendly choice in ultraviolet lighting and sensor technologies. Knowledge of defects which impact their optical and material properties is a key issue for utilization of these alloys in various technologies. The impact of phase segregation, structural imperfections, and alloy inhomogeneities on the phonon dynamics and electronic states of Mg{sub x}Zn{sub 1−x}O thin films were studied via selective resonant Raman scattering (SRRS) and Urbach analyses, respectively. A series of samples with Mg composition from 0–68% were grown using a sputtering technique, and the optical gaps were found to span amore »« less

Electron-phonon coupling and thermal transport in the thermoelectric compound Mo₃Sb_7–xTe_x

Journal Article Bansal, Dipanshu; Li, Chen; Said, Ayman; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

Phonon properties of Mo₃Sb_7–xTe_x (x = 0, 1.5, 1.7), a potential high-temperature thermoelectric material, have been studied with inelastic neutron and x-ray scattering, and with first-principles simulations. The substitution of Te for Sb leads to pronounced changes in the electronic struc- ture, local bonding, phonon density of states (DOS), dispersions, and phonon lifetimes. Alloying with tellurium shifts the Fermi level upward, near the top of the valence band, resulting in a strong suppression of electron-phonon screening, and a large overall stiffening of interatomic force- constants. The suppression in electron-phonon coupling concomitantly increases group velocities and suppresses phonon scattering rates, surpassingmore »« less

The effects of neutron irradiation and temperature on optical fibers and materials

Miscellaneous Singh, A

This thesis is a study of the effects of neutron irradiation and temperature on optical fibers and materials. This thesis deals with the effects of neutron irradiation on optical fibers, detectors and potential fiber materials. The study of the effects of neutron irradiation on optical fibers revealed that loss of transmission occurs due to irradiation. This loss is dependent on the radiation dose and also depends on the composition of the fibers. Annealing of the irradiated fibers was used to determine the activation energy of the defects. The recovery at different temperatures could be explained by a thermal charge untrappingmore »« less
Intrinsic to extrinsic phonon lifetime transition in a GaAs–AlAs superlattice

Journal Article Hofmann, F.; Garg, J.; Maznev, A.; ... - Journal of Physics. Condensed Matter

We have measured here the lifetimes of two zone-center longitudinal acoustic phonon modes, at 320 and 640 GHz, in a 14 nm GaAs/2 nm AlAs superlattice structure. By comparing measurements at 296 and 79 K we separate the intrinsic contribution to phonon lifetime determined by phonon–phonon scattering from the extrinsic contribution due to defects and interface roughness. At 296 K, the 320 GHz phonon lifetime has approximately equal contributions from intrinsic and extrinsic scattering, whilst at 640 GHz it is dominated by extrinsic effects. These measurements are compared with intrinsic and extrinsic scattering rates in the superlattice obtained from first-principlesmore »« less
